A 1.5 m long column has a circular cross-section of 50 mm diameter. Consider Rankine’s formula with values of fc = 560 N/mm2, \(\alpha = \frac{1}{{1600}}\) for pinned ends and factor of safety of 3. If one end of the column is fixed and the other end is free, the safe load will be

• A. 9948 N
• B. 9906 N
• C. 9864 N
• D. 9822 N
