Question: Problem 2 Consider the axial member that is shown below. This member is circular with a radius of 2 . 0 in and is fixed
Problem
Consider the axial member that is shown below. This member is circular with a radius of in and is fixed at one end. The member is made out of a material with a modulus of elasticity of ksi and a linear coefficient of thermal expansion of circmathrmF
a Calculate the reactions when this axial member is subjected to a circmathrmF increase in temperature.
b Calculate the displacement of point B relative to point A when this axial member is subjected to a circmathrmF increase in temperature.
c Consider an applied axial force at point B What is the value of this axial force that would result in the same displacement of point B relative to point A that was solved for in part a Notes:
In addition to providing a magnitude for this axial force, make sure you state if the axial force is tension or compression.
In part c the member is subjected to an applied axial load only, not a combined axial load and temperature differential.
