Homework Statement
The stress distribution along the section of a bar is shown below. From this distribution, find the approximate axial force P in kip.
Homework Equations
δavg=P/A
A= (.6+.6)(.5)
δavg=30ksi[/B]
The Attempt at a Solution
P=(30ksi)(.6in2)=18kip
It says this answer is wrong but i don't see where i am going wrong here? .8in is the diameter of the whole so it is not considered when finding the area.[/B]
