P1.10 Create a solid model of the connecting rod shown in Figure P1.10A. Use the

dimensions shown in Figure P1.10B. Assign the material to be Cast Carbon

Steel, and add a sensor to determine the mass. Notes: When sketching the

shape of the rod, use tangent relations between the diagonal edges and the

rounded ends, as shown in Figure PI.10C. To maintain the symmetry of

the rod, make your sketches in the Front Plane and choose Midplane as

the type of extrusion. This will cause the sketch to be extruded an equal

distance in both directions from the Front Plane.
