Question
A 2-m long steel rod, 10-mm in diameter, is carrying a load of 20 kN. (a) what is the axial stress developed in the rod, in kN/m^2. Is the tensile or compressive? (b) compute the amount of elongation (in mm) in the steel rod caused by the applied load, (c) what will be the elongation (in mm) in the steel rod if the weight of the steel rod is included? Use density of the steel to be 7860 kg/m^3. Young's modulus of elasticity, E=200GPa. W=mg. Draw free body diagram of the steel rod.
