The stress in the rod is equal to [tex]2.55 \times 10^8\;N/m[/tex]
Given the following data:
- Force = 20 kN = 20,000 Newton
- Diameter = 10 mm to m = 0.01 meter
To calculate the stress in the rod:
First of all, we would determine the area of the rod by using this formula:
[tex]Area = \frac{\pi d^2}{4} \\\\Area = \frac{3.142 \times 0.01^2}{4}[/tex]
Area = 0.00007855 meter.
Mathematically, stress is given by this formula:
[tex]Stress = \frac{Force}{Area}[/tex]
Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;
[tex]Stress = \frac{20000}{0.00007855} \\\\Stress = 2.55 \times 10^8\;N/m[/tex]
