The rails of a railroad track are welded together at their ends (to form continuous rails and thus eliminate the clacking sound of the wheels) when the temperature is 60°F. What compressive stress ?? =6.5×10-6 /? is produced in the rails when they are heated by the sun to 120"F if the coefficient of thermal expansion a = the modulus of elasticity E = 30 × 106 psi?
A pressurized circular cylinder has a sealed cover plate fastened with steel bolts (see figure). The pressure P of the gas in the cylinder is290psi, the inside diameter D of the cylinder is 10.0 in., and the diameter dBof the bolts is 0.50 in. I f the allowable tensile stress in the bolts is 10,000 psi, find the number n of bolts needed to fasten the cover.
Two bars AC and BC of the same material support a vertical load P (see figure). The length L of the horizontal bar is fixed, but the angle fl can be varied by moving support A vertically and changing the length of bar AC to correspond with the new position of support A. The allowable stresses in the bars are the same in tension and compression. When the angle ft is reduced, bar AC becomes shorter, but the cross-sectional areas of both bars increase because the axial forces are larger. The opposite effects occur if the angle 0 is increased. Thus, the weight of the structure (which is proportional to the volume) depends upon the angle ft. Determine the angle ft so that the structure has minimum weight without exceeding the allowable stresses in the bars. Note: The weights of the bars are very small compared to the force P and may be disregarded.
