P1.4 Two solid cylindrical rods (1) and (2) are joined together at flange B and loaded, as shown in Figure P1.3/4. The diameter of rod (1) is 1.75 in. and the diameter of rod (2) is 2.50 in. Determine the normal stresses in rods (1) and (2). FIGURE P1.3/4 Solution Cut a FBD through rod (1). The FBD should include the free end of the rod at A. We will assume that the internal force in rod (1) is tension (even though it obviously will be in compression). From equilibrium, 1 1 15 kips 0...
