1-2-2 A force P of 70 N is applied by a rider to the
front hand brake of a bicycle (P is the resultant of an
evenly distributed pressure). As the hand brake pivots at A,
a tension T develops in the 460-mm long brake cable (A, =
1.075 mm²) which elongates by 8 = 0.214 mm. Find normal
stress and strain & in the brake cable.
