A compound tube consists of a steel tube 150 mm internal diameter and 170 mm external diameter and a brass tube of 170 mm internal diameter and 190 mm external diameter. The two tubes are of the same length. The compound tube carries an axial load of 1000 kN. Find the stresses and the load carried by each tube and the amount it shortens. Length of each tube is 140 mm. Take Ĕ for steel as 2 x 105 N/mm² and for brass as 1 x 105 N/mm².
