Question
A steel bar 600mm long and having
30mm diameter, is turned down to
25mm diameter for one fourth of its
length. It is heated at 30 °C above
room temperature, clamped at both
ends and then allowed to cool to room
temperature. If the distance between
the clamps is unchanged, the
maximum stress in the bar (a = 12.5 x
10-6,°c and E = 200o GN/m3) is
75 MPa
25 MPa
40 MPa
50 MPa
