11 Compute change in diameter volume method V = V x T x V = (3 x 12.5E-06) x (115-15) x (10/1000) 2 x 200/1000 = 2.3562 x 10 11 m 3 Rod final volume = V + V = r 2 L + V x + 2.3562 x 10 11 = 6.31 x 10 13 m 3 Final d = 20.025 mm There is no stress acting on the rod because the rod is free to move. 1.39. Since the rod is snugly fitted against two immovable nonconducting walls, the length of the rod will not change, L = 200 mm From problem 1.25, L = 0.00025 m = L / L = 0.00025 / 0.2 = 0.00125 m/m = E = 0.00125 x 207,000 = 258.75 MPa The stress induced in the bar will be compression. 1.40. a. The change in length can be calculated using Equation 1.9 as follows: L = L x T x L = 1.1E-5 x (5 - 40) x 4 = -0.00154 m b. The tension load needed to return the length to the original value of 4 meters can be calculated as follows: = L / L = -0.00154/ 4 = -0.000358 m/m = E = -0.000358 x 200,000 = -77 MPa P = x A = -77 x (100 x 50) = -385,000 N = -385 kN (tension) c. Longitudinal strain under this load = 0.000358 m/m 1.41. If the bar was fixed at one end and free at the other end, the bar would have contracted and no stresses would have developed. In that case, the change in length can be calculated using Equation 1.9 as follows. L = L x T x L = 0.000005 x (0 - 100) x 50 = -0.025 in. = L / L = 0.025 / 50 = 0.0005 in./in. Since the bar is fixed at both ends, the length of the bar will not change. Therefore, a tensile stress will develop in the bar as follows. = E = -0.0005 x 5,000,000 = -2,500 psi Thus, the tensile strength should be larger than 2,500 psi in order to prevent cracking. 1.43.
