The distributed loading is applied to the rigid beam, which is supported by the three bars as shown in the figure below . Each bar has a cross-sectional area of Problem \( 4.99 \) (?) 7 of 8 stress-strain diagram that can be approximated by the two line segments. If a load of \( w=22 \mathrm{kip} / \mathrm{ft} \) is applied to the beam, determine the stress in each bar. Express your answer to three significant figures and include appropriate units. Determine the vertical displacement of the beam. Express your answer to three significant figures and include appropriate units.
