When a bar is under its own weight, it will experience a uniform distributed load along its length, causing it to deform in a curved shape due to bending. This deformation is known as sagging.
On the other hand, when a bar is subjected to a direct axial load equal to its own weight, it will experience a uniform compressive force along its length, causing it to deform in a straight line due to compression. This deformation is known as buckling.
Therefore, the deformation of a bar under its own weight will be different from that when subjected to a direct axial load equal to its own weight.
