A tension bar 7 m long is made up of two parts, 4 m of its length has across section area of 12 cm2 while the remaining 3 m has a cross sectional area of 25 cm2. An axial load of 80 kN is applied gradually. Now in the second case, same axial load is applied on a bar of uniform diameter having same length and volume. The ratio of strain energy stored in the first case to the second case is Take E = 2 x 105 N/mm2 and answer upto 3 places after decimal.
