A steel rod is clamped at its two ends and rests on a fixed horizontal base. The rod is unstrained at 20°C.
Find the longitudinal strain developed in the rod if the temperature rises to 50°C. Coefficient of linear expansion of steel = 1.2 × 10–5 °C–1.

The longitudinal strain developed in the rod if the temperature rises to 50°C is
Explanation:
Temperature at which rod rest without strain on a set horizontal base, = 20 °C. Then Heat the rod to temperature, = 50 °C
Therefore, the temperature changes,
Linear expansion coefficient for steel, °C-1
Let L be the length of the heated rod, and let L ' be the length of the heated rod.
Let the longitudinal strain in the rod develop be S.
The strain will be opposite to the expansion direction.
