A hollow cast-iron cylinder 4m long, 300mm outer diameter, and thickness of metal 50mm is subjected to a central load on the top when standing straight. The stress produced is 75000kN/m2. Assume Young's modulus for cast iron as 1.5x 108 kN/m^2 and find (i) magnitude of the load, (ii) longitudinal strain produced, and (iii) total decrease in length. ​

Respuesta :

Here, the calculated Magnitude of the load P is 2945.2 kN, the Longitudinal strain produced is 0.0005 and the decrease in length is 2 mm.

Given,

Length, L = 4 m

Outer diameter, D = 300mm, D= 0.3 m

Thickness, t = 50 mm, t = 0.05 m

Stress produced, σ = 75000 kN/m²

Young's modulus for cast iron, E = 1.5 x 10⁸ kN/m²

Calculating the diameter of the cylinder,

Diameter of cylinder, d = (D) – (2t) = 0.3 –( 2 × 0.05)

d= 0.2 m

(i) Magnitude of the load P:

Using the relation, σ =P/A

P = σ × A = 75000 × π /4 (D² – d² )

P= 75000 × π/4 (0.3² – 0.2²)

P= 75000 × π/4 (0.09 – 0.04)

P = 2945.2 kN

Hence, Magnitude of the load P is 2945.2 kN.

(ii) Longitudinal strain produced, e :

Using the relation, Strain, (e) = stress/E

e= 75000/(1.5 x 10⁸)= 0.0005

Hence, the Longitudinal strain produced is 0.0005.

(iii)Total decrease in length, dL:

The total decrease in length can be calculated using the strain as the ratio of change in length to the original length is known as Strain.

Strain = change in length/original length

e= dL/L

0.0005 = dL/4

dL = 0.0005 × 4m = 0.002m=2mm

Hence,the decrease in length is 2 mm.
