Problem Set No. Title: Strain Page No.

1. An 80-m-long wire of 5-mm diameter is made of a steel with E = 200 GPa and an
ultimate tensile strength of 400 MPa. If a factor of safety of 3.2 is desired, determine
(a) the largest allowable tension in the wire, (b) the corresponding elongation of the
wire.

Solution

2. A steel control rod is 5.5 ft long and must not stretch more than 0.04 in. when a 2-
kip tensile load is applied to it. Knowing that E = 29×106 psi, determine (a) the
smallest diameter rod that should be used, (b) the corresponding normal stress
caused by the load.
