The lower ends of the three bars shown in the figure are at the same level before the rigid homogeneous W = 100 kN block is attached. The properties of the bars are shown in the table. Steel Bronze Length, L Area, A Modulus of elasticity, E Coefficient of thermal expansion, a 1.00 m 500 mm2 1.60 m 900 mm2 200 GPa 83 GPa 11.7x10 /°C 18x10-6 /°C Bronze Steel Steel A B C W The temperature of the bars is then increased by 80°C. The block is assumed to remain horizontal after all deformations have occurred. Which of the following most nearly gives the stress developed in the steel bar?
