Q.

A metal rod is fixed rigidly at two ends so as to prevent its thermal expansion. If L, α and Y respectively denote the length of the rod, coefficient of linear thermal expansion and Young's modulus of its material, then for an increase in temperature of the rod by ∆T, the longitudinal stress developed in the rod is [AMU 2014]

Detailed Solution

Strain = α·∆T  ⇒  Stress =α Y∆Twhere, L = length of the rod,            α = coefficient of linear thermal expansionand      Y = Young's modulus of its material.So, the longitudinal stress developed in the rod is independent of L
