Question 3: At a particle accelerator facility, a 16000kg detector is to be installed
on top of four aluminum legs, each with cross sectional area 0.001m?. The legs are
fabricated at 20°C to a height of 0.10000m. After the detector is in place, the
scientists adjust the temperature of the legs in order to compensate for the
compression due to the weight of the detector. If they would like the final height
of the legs to be 0.10000m, what should be the temperature of the legs?
For aluminum, Y = 7×101º, a = 2.4×105

The band in Figure P10.23 is stainless steel (coefficient of linear expansion = 17.3 x 10-6 (°C)-1; Young’s modulus = 18 x 1010 N/m2). It is essentially circular with an initial mean radius of 5.0 mm, a height of 4.0 mm, and a thickness of 0.50 mm. If the band just fits snugly over the tooth when heated to a temperature of 80.0°C, what is the tension in the band when it cools to a temperature of 37°C?
