*4100. The rigid bar is supported by a pin at A and two

steel wires, each having a diameter of 4 mm. If the yield E D
stress for the wires is sY = 530 MPa, and Est = 200 GPa,
determine (a) the intensity of the distributed load w that
can be placed on the beam that will cause only one of the 800 mm
wires to start to yield and (b) the smallest intensity of
the distributed load that will cause both wires to yield. For A B C
