5. Two strain gauges a and b are attached to a plate made from a material having a modulus of elasticity of E=80 GPa and Poisson's ratio v=0.3. If the gauges give a reading of ea = 350(10) and Eb = 120(10), determine the intensities of the uniform distributed load W. and w, acting on the plate. The thickness of the plate is 25 mm.
