1. A compound tube consists of a steel tube 140 mm internal diameter and 160 mm external
diameter and an outer brass tube 160 mm internal diameter and 180 mm external diameter.

10. A steel tube of 30mm external diameter and 20 mm internal diameter encloses a copper
rod of 15mm diameter to which it is rigidly jointed at each end. If, at a temperature of 10°C
there is no longitudinal stress, calculate the stresses in the rod and tube when the
temperature is raised to 200°C.Take E for steel and copper are 2.1x105N/mm2 and 1x105
