A steel rod of cross-sectional area 4 cm2 and 2 m shrinks by 0.1 cm as the temperature decreases in night. If the rod is clamped at both ends during the day hours, find the tension developed in it during night hours. Young modulus of steel = 1.9 × 1011 N m−2.

उत्तर
Given:
Cross-sectional area of steel rod A = 4 cm2 = 4 × 10−4 m2
Length of steel rod L = 2 m
Compression during night hours ΔL = 0.1 cm = 10−3 m
Young modulus of steel Y = 1.9 × 1011 N m−2
Let the tension developed at night be F.
\[Y = \frac{F}{A} \times \frac{L}{∆ L}\]
\[ \Rightarrow F = \frac{YA ∆ L}{L}\]
\[ = \frac{1 . 9 \times {10}^{11} \times 4 \times {10}^{- 4} \times {10}^{- 3}}{2}\]
\[ = 3 . 8 \times {10}^4 N\]
∴ Required tension developed in steel rod during night hours = 3.8 × 104 N.

In nature, the failure of structural members usually result from large torque because of twisting or bending rather than due to tensile or compressive strains. This process of structural breakdown is called buckling and in cases of tall cylindrical structures like trees, the torque is caused by its own weight bending the structure. Thus the vertical through the centre of gravity does not fall within the base. The elastic torque caused because of this bending about the central axis of the tree is given by `(Ypir^4)/(4R) . Y` is the Young’s modulus, r is the radius of the trunk and R is the radius of curvature of the bent surface along the height of the tree containing the centre of gravity (the neutral surface). Estimate the critical height of a tree for a given radius of the trunk.
