Rigid beam ABC supports two rods that initially have no strain. If a temperature increase in rod (1) creates a normal strain of 2,275 μin./in. in it, determine the normal strain in rod (2). The initial lengths are a = 8 in., b = 12 in., c = 35 in., and d = 11 in. Assume there is no slack in the connections.

A Hunts can weighs 0.65 lb and is 2.58 in. in diameter. A Great Value can weighs 0.54 lb and is 2.50 in. in diameter. What is the largest bearing stress that occurs between the cans and the table? Assume each can has a smooth base and sits flat on the table.

If the normal stress in rod (1) is limited to 230 MPa and the required factor of safety is 2.1, determine the maximum load P that can be applied to rod (2). Let a = 0.43 m, b = 0.82 m, and the cross-sectional area of rod (1) be 195 mm2.

A steel rod with a 1.75-in. gage length and a 0.190-in. diameter is loaded in tension. At the proportional limit, a load of 1,100 lb elongates the gage length by 0.00207 in. and reduces the diameter by 0.000065 in. Determine the Poisson’s ratio.

Rigid beam ABC supports two rods that initially have no strain. If a temperature increase in rod (1) creates a normal strain of 3,045 μin./in. in it, determine the normal strain in rod (2). The initial lengths are a = 8 in., b = 15 in., c = 34 in., and d = 9 in. Assume there is no slack in the connections.
