*1. Homework Statement *
http://postimg.org/image/yrbu7a0vb/
*2. Homework Equations *
e(elongation of a member) = (Force * Length)/(Area * Young's Modulus)
*3. The Attempt at a Solution *
Is the force P distributed so that the force on each bar is P/3 so that F2 would be (14/3)?
How do I use that value and the elongation equation to find the width of the gap?
I'm not sure what the relationship should be
thanks
