Answer to Problem 1P
The value of stress in a tube is,
The axial deformation in the tube is,
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Length of the tube,
Inside diameter of the tube,
Outside diameter of the tube,
Steady load in the tensile member,
Concept used:
Stress- It is the applied force per unit area.
Unit of the stress is N/m2.
The axial deformation in the tube is,
Where,
Calculation:
The cross sectional area of the tube is calculated as,
The cross sectional area of the tube is,
Now the value of tensile stress is calculated as:
As,
Thus,
Hence, the value of stress in a tube is,
Now calculate the axial deformation in the tube.
The axial deformation in the tube is calculated as,
Hence, the axial deformation in the tube is,
