Two rods `' A '` & `' B '` of equal free length hang vertically `60 cm` apart and support a rigid bar horizontally. The bar remains horizontal when carrying a load of `5000 kg` at `20 cm` from `'A'`. If the stress in `'B'` is `50 N//mm^(2)`m, find the stress in `'A'` and the areas of `'A'` and `'B'`
Given `Y_(B) = 9 xx 10^(4) N//m^(2),Y_(A) = 2 xx 10^(5) N//mm^(2), g = 10m//sec^(2)`
