Two rods of different materials having coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha_1$and $\alpha_2$ and Young's modulii $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ respectively are fixed between two rigid massive walls. The rods are heated such that they undergo the same increase in temperature. There is no bending of rods. If $\alpha_1:\alpha_2= 2 : 3$, the thermal stress developed in two rods are equal provided $Y_1 : Y_2$ is equal to
A seconds pendulum clock has a steel wire. The clock shows correct time at $25^{\circ} C$. .......... $s$ time does the clock lose or gain, in one week, when the temperature is increased to $35^{\circ} C$ ? $\left(\alpha_{\text {toel }}=1.2 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} C \right)$
A brass rod of length $50\; cm$ and diameter $3.0 \;mm$ is jotned to a steel rod of the same length and diameter. What is the change in length of the combined rod at $250\,^{\circ} C ,$ if the original lengths are at $40.0\,^{\circ} C ?$ Is there a 'thermal stress' developed at the junction? The ends of the rod are free to expand (Co-efficient of linear expansion of brass $=2.0 \times 10^{-5} \;K ^{-1},$ steel $=1.2 \times 10^{-5}\; K ^{-1} J$
A brass wire $1.8\; m$ long at $27\,^{\circ} C$ is held taut with little tension between two rigid supports. If the wire is cooled to a temperature of $-39\,^{\circ} C ,$ what is the tension developed in the wire, if its diameter is $2.0 \;mm$ ? Co-efficient of Itnear expansion of brass $=2.0 \times 10^{-5}\; K ^{-1} ;$ Young's modulus of brass $=0.91 \times 10^{11} \;Pa$
