Two vertical rods one of steel and the other of copper are rigidly fastened at their upper end at a horizontal distance of 200 mm as shown in Fig. 4.13. The lower ends support a rigid horizontal bar, which carries a load of 10 kN. Both the rods are 2.5 m long and have cross-sectional area of 12.5 mm2. Where should a load of 10 kN be placed on the bar, so that it remains horizontal after loading? Also find the stresses in each rod. Take ES = 200 GPa and EC = 110 GPa. Neglect bending of the cross-bar.
