A bar AB having length L, Young’s modulus E, and Area A, is fixed at end A (see figure). At the other end a small gap of dimension s exists between the end of the bar and a rigid surface. A load P acts on the bar at point C, which is two-thirds of the length from the fixed end, and it makes the bar to come in contact with the right side support. If the support reactions produced by the load P are to be equal in magnitude, what should be the size ‘s’ of the gap?
