1.11 (a) A test piece is cut from a brass bar and subjected to a tensile test. With a load of 6.4 kN the test piece, of diameter 11.28 mm, extends by 0.04 mm over a gauge length of 50 mm. Determine: (i) the stress, (ii) the strain, (hi) the modulus of elasticity. (b) A spacer is turned from the same bar. The spacer has a diameter of 28 mm and a length of 250mm. both measurements being made at 20°C. The temperature of the spacer is then increased to 100°C, the natural expansion being entirely prevented. Taking the coefficient of linear expansion to be 18 x 10-6/"C determine: (i) the stress in the spacer, (ii) the compressive load on the spacer.
