A steel rod, which is free to move, has a length of 200 mm and diameter of 20 mm at a temperature of 15°C. If the rod is heated uniformly to 115°C,determine the length and the diameter of this rod to the nearest micron at the new temperature if the linear coefficient of thermal expansion of steel is 12.5 * 10-6m/m/C. Is there a stress on the rod at 115°C?If the rod is snugly fitted against two immovable nonconducting walls at a temperature of 15°C and then heated uniformly to115°C, what is its length at 115°C? If the modulus of elasticity of steel is207 GPa, what is the stress induced in the bar? Is this stress tension or compression?
