Question

The composite bar shown in the figure is firmly attached to unyielding supports.  An Axial force P = 52 kips is applied at 69∘F.  Compute the stress (ksi) in the Aluminum at 118 ∘F.  Assume α= 6.5 x 10-6/∘ F for steel and 12.8 x 10-6/∘F for aluminum

Given: L1 = 17in; L2 = 11in

Your final answer should contain two decimal places
