Question: Q 2 : ( 1 2 points ) The cylinder CD of the assembly is heated from ( mathrm { T } 1

Q2: (12 points) The cylinder CD of the assembly is heated from \(\mathrm{T}1=30\) degree Celsius to T2\(=180\) degree Celsius using electrical resistance. At the lower temperature T1 the gap between C and the rigid bar, BF 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\(\mathrm{mm}^{2}.\mathrm{CD}\) is made of aluminum and has a cross section area of \(375\mathrm{~mm}^{2}\). Modulus of elasticity of steel and aluminum are 200 GPa and 70 GPa , coefficient of thermal expansion is \(23\mathrm{X}10\mathrm{E}-6\)/degree Celsius.
