14-69. The temperature in an oven is measured by means of a stainless steel wire placed inside it. The wire is attached to the end of a cantilever beam outside the oven. The strain measured by the extensometer attached to the outside of the beam is a measure of temperature. Assuming that the entire length of the wire is heated to the oven temperature, what is the change in oven temperature if the extensometer records a change in strain of -100 x 10^-6 in/in? Assume that the wire has sufficient initial tension to function properly. The mechanical properties of the materials are as follows: c =9.5 x 10^-6/F, I =12 x 10^-6/F, Eac =30 x 10^6 psi, EAI =10 x 10^6 psi, Awires =5 x 10^-4 in^2, Ibeam =6.5 x 10^-4 in^4. The superelevation of the small beam is 0.25 in. Fig. P14-69
