A solid truncated cone is subjected to an axial force $\mathrm{P}$ as shown. The exact elongation is $(PL)/\left(2?c^{2}E\right)$. By replacing the cone by $n$ circular cylinders of equal thickness, write a computer program that can be used to calculate the elongation of the truncated cone. What is the percentage error in the answer obtained from the program using $(a)n=6,(b)n=12,(c)n=60$ ? Submit a published pdf file of your code or an excel sheet with clearly indicated answers and plots. The submission should include: -the answer to (a), (b), (c) [do not use ; at the line(s) where you evaluate the error] -a plot of average axial stress versus length; -a plot of average axial strain versus length; You can select whatever values you want for $\mathrm{P},\mathrm{L},\mathrm{c}$, and $\mathrm{E}$.
