2) The wire has a diameter of 5 mm and is made from A-36 steel. If a 80-kg man is sitting on seat C,
determine the elongation of wire DE.
3) The rigid bar is supported by the pin-connected rod CB that has a cross-sectional area of 14 mm2 and is
made from aluminum (use E=70 Gpa). Determine the vertical deflection of the bar at D when the
distributed load is applied.
4) The friction pad A is used to support the member, which is subjected to an axial force of P= 2 kN. The
pad is made from a material having a modulus of elasticity of E= 4 MPa and Poisson’s ratio υ= 0.4. If
slipping does not occur, determine the normal and shear strains in the pad. The width is 50 mm. Assume
that the material is linearly elastic. Also, neglect the effect of the moment acting on the pad.
5) The assembly consists of two 10-mm diameter red brass C83400 copper rods AB and CD, a 15-mm
diameter 304 stainless steel rod EF, and a rigid bar G. If P=5 kN determine the horizontal displacement
of end F of rod EF.
6) The composite shaft, consisting of aluminum, copper, and steel sections, is subjected to the loading
shown. Determine the displacement of end A with respect to end D and the normal stress in each
section. The cross-sectional area and modulus of elasticity for each section are shown in the figure.
Neglect the size of the collars at B and C.
7) The rigid beam rests in the horizontal position on two 2014-T6 aluminum cylinders(use E=70 Gpa).
having the unloaded lengths shown. If each cylinder has a diameter of 30 mm. determine the placement
x of the applied 80-kN load so that the beam remains horizontal. What is the new diameter of cylinder A
after the load is applied? υ= 0.35.
8) The cylinder CD of the assembly is heated from T1 = 30°C to T2 = 180°C using electrical resistance. Also,
the two end rods AB and EF are heated from T1 = 30°C to T2 = 50°C. At the lower temperature T1
temperature T1 the gap between C and the rigid bar is 0.7 mm. Determine the force in rods AB and EF
caused by the increase in temperature. Rods AB and EF are made of steel, and each has a cross-sectional
area of 125 mm2. CD is made of aluminum and has a cross sectional area of 375 mm2. Est = 200 GPa, Eal
= 70 GPa, 𝛼st = 12*(10-6)/C, and 𝛼 al = 23*(10-6)/C °.
9) The two cylindrical rod segments are fixed to the rigid walls such that there is a gap of 0.01 in. between
them when T1 = 60°F. Each rod has a diameter of 1.25 in. Determine the average normal stress in each
rod if T2 = 400°F, and also calculate the new length of the aluminum segment. Take 𝛼 al = 13*(10-6)/F,
Eal = 10* (103) ksi, (𝜎𝑦 )al = 40 ksi, 𝛼 cu = 9.4*(10-6)/F, (𝜎𝑦 )cu = 50 ksi, and Ecu = 15* (103) ksi.
10) The assembly has the diameters and material indicated. If it fits securely between its fixed supports when
the temperature is T1 = 70°F, determine the average normal stress in each material when the temperature
reaches T2 = 110°F.
