Question
When a rod is heated but prevented from expanding, the stress developed is independent of
Answer: Option C
:
C
Lt=L0(1+α△θ)
△L=Lt−L0=L0α△θ
If the same rod of lenghth L0 is subjected to stress along its length, then extension in length can be calculated by Hooke's law
Y=stressstrain=stress△LLn
=L0×stress△L
Therefore △L=L0×stressY
If the rod is prevented from expanding, we have
Loα△θ=Lo×stressY
Therefore stress=Yα△θ= (independent of L0)
