Solution:

A steel bar has a cross-section of 50 mm × 40 mm and is subjected to an axial compressive load of 300 kN. The length of the bar is 2.5 m, and the Young's modulus of elasticity is 200 GPa. Calculate the elongation of the bar.

Solution:

A cylindrical bar with a length of π meters hinged on both sides has a diameter of 70 mm & flexural rigidity of 20000 Nm2Nm^2 . Another cylindrical bar of length 2m & diameter 70 mm is fixed with roof, exactly above the hinged bar. If the distance between both the bars is 0.02 mm, find the minimum rise in temperature required for the fixed bar to buckle the hinged bar. For the fixed bar, Take Elastic modulus as 200 Gpa & Thermal expansion coefficient (α) as 10^-6 K^-1. (Round off to the nearest integer)
