A brass bar AB projecting from the side of a large machine is loaded at end B by a force P 1500 lb acting with eccentricity e=0.45 in. (as shown in the following figure). The bar has a rectangular cross section with height h= 1.2 in. and width b=0.6 in. What is the largest possible length of the bar if the deflection at the end is limited to 0.12 in.? (for brass, use E = 16 x 106 psi.) A Brass bar L Ab B P
