Questions  

A steel wire of cross sectional area 2mm2  is just stretched horizontally between two fixed points at a temperature of 350C . The temperature of the wire changed to 250C . Then (Coefficient of linear expansion of steel=11×106/0C;Ysteel=2×1011Nm2 )

a
The thermal strain is 11×10−5
b
The thermal stress is 2.2×107N/m2
c
The tension in the wire at temperature 250C  is 44N
d
All the above

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Thermal strain(eℓ)=αΔt Thermal stress = y x thermal strain ⇒FA=yeℓ Tension (Mg) = yπr2(eℓ)
