A monel shell (Em 5 170 GPa, d3 5 12 mm, d2 5 8 mm) encloses a brass core (Eb 5 96 GPa, d1 5 6 mm). Initially, both shell and core are a length of 100 mm. A load P is applied to both shell and core through a cap plate. The load P required to compress both shell and core by 0.10 mm is approximately:


(A) 10.2 kN
(B) 13.4 kN
(C) 18.5 kN
(D) 21.0 kN
