Situation IV. At 10°C, the rigid horizontal slab is attached to two identical copper rods as shown in Fig. 4. A (mm2) E (GPa) a (um/m-C) Copper 500 120 16.8 Aluminum 400 23.1 7. If the gap A=0.18 mm, calculate the stress in each rod when the temperature in the assembly is increased by 85 °C neglecting the weight of the slab. 8. What must be the temperature difference in the assembly to have a zero-stress on the aluminum rod if the gap is 0.2 mm and the slab has a mass of 35 Mg. 70
Copper Aluminum Fig. 4 Copper 150 mm
