A 3D printer is used to create a shock absorbed composed of two polymers. Polymer (1) [E = 160 ksi] has a cross-sectional area of 1.2 in.2. Polymer (2) [E = 240 ksi] has a cross-sectional area of 1.2 in.2. After the shock absorber is loaded between steel plates by load P = 480 lb, determine the load carried by polymer (1).
