A stepped bar with circular cross-section and supported at top, hangs vertically under its own weight. Dimensions of the bar are as shown in the figure below. Calculate the elongation of the bar under its own weight. What is the change in diameter of the bar at section A-A shown in the figure? T 1000 mm 1000 mm TE 500 mm A 100 mm dia 70 mm dia E = 2 x 105 N/mm², density y = 8 x 10-5 N/mm³ and Poisson's ratio μ = 0.2.
