The two bars shown in the figure are used to support a load P. When unloaded, joint B has coordinates (0, 0). After load P is applied, joint B moves to the coordinate position (0.35 in., -0.45 in.). Assume a = 9 ft, b=5 ft, and h = 7 ft. Determine the normal strain in each bar. Answers: EAB = EBC= i a B P b με με
