The diameter and length of the steel rod are given as 10 mm and 120 mm, respectively, the diameter and the length of the brass rod as 20 mm and 80 mm respectively. The rod is used as a tie in a link mechanism and the strain in the brass rod is limited to 0.53x 10 3, Given that the total extension of the composite rod must not exceed 0,162 4 mm and E for steel is 200 GPa, respectively. Calculate: a. Strain in the steel rod b. Load carried by the steel and brass rods d. Modulus of elasticity for the brass.arrow_forwardA rectangular steel block is 4 inches long in the x direction, 2 inches long in the y direction, and 3 inches long in the z direction. The block is subjected to a triaxial loading of three resultant forces as follows: 72 kips compression in the x direction, 60 kips tension in the y direction, and 56 kips tension in the z direction. If ν = 1/3 and E = 29 x 106 psi, ( a ) determine the single resultant load in the z direction that would produce the same deformation in x direction as the original loadings.
