Here are the solutions to Question 7:

Given:

  • Diameter, d=18 mmd = 18 \text{ mm}
  • Load, F=55 kNF = 55 \text{ kN}
  • Extension, ΔL=0.190 mm\Delta L = 0.190 \text{ mm}
  • Original length, L0=202 mmL_0 = 202 \text{ mm}

Step 1: Convert given values to SI units. d=18mm=0.018md = 18 mm = 0.018 m F=55kN=55×103NF = 55 kN = 55 \times 10^3 N ΔL=0.190mm=0.190×103m\Delta L = 0.190 mm = 0.190 \times 10^{-3} m L0=202mm=0.202mL_0 = 202 mm = 0.202 m

7.1.1 The stress in the bar

Step 2: Calculate the cross-sectional area (AA) of the bar. The bar is round, so its area is: A=πd24A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4} A=π(0.018m)24A = \frac{\pi (0.018 m)^2}{4} A=π(0.000324)4m2A = \frac{\pi (0.000324)}{4} m^2 A2.54469×104m2A \approx 2.54469 \times 10^{-4} m^2

Step 3: Calculate the stress (σ\sigma) in the bar. Stress is defined as force per unit area: σ=FA\sigma = \frac{F}{A} σ=55×103N2.54469×104m2\sigma = \frac{55 \times 10^3 N}{2.54469 \times 10^{-4} m^2} σ216130000Pa\sigma \approx 216130000 Pa σ216.13MPa\sigma \approx 216.13 MPa

The stress in the bar is 216.13MPa\boxed{216.13 MPa}.

7.1.2 The strain in the bar

Step 4: Calculate the strain (ϵ\epsilon) in the bar. Strain is defined as the change in length divided by the original length: ϵ=ΔLL0\epsilon = \frac{\Delta L}{L_0} ϵ=0.190mm202mm\epsilon = \frac{0.190 mm}{202 mm} ϵ0.00094059\epsilon \approx 0.00094059

The strain in the bar is 0.00094059\boxed{0.00094059}.

7.1.3 Young's modulus

Step 5: Calculate Young's modulus (EE). Young's modulus is the ratio of stress to strain: E=σϵE = \frac{\sigma}{\epsilon} E=216.13×106Pa0.00094059E = \frac{216.13 \times 10^6 Pa}{0.00094059} E229782000000PaE \approx 229782000000 Pa E229.78GPaE \approx 229.78 GPa

Young's modulus is 229.78GPa\boxed{229.78 GPa}.
