If the steel has a yield strength of 50 ksi,what combinations of W and h are required to produce yielding of the rod? Neglect the weight of the rod and neglect transverse shear stresses. Assume the maximum-distortion-energy theory of failure applies.[Ans.: Wh 2 92.4 in.-Ib. based on an additional simplifying assumption.]
