A cylindrical rod 500 m (20.0 in) long, having a diameter of 12.7 mm (0.50 in.), is to be subjected to a tensile load. If the rod is to be experienced neither plastic deformation nor an elongation of more than 1.3 mm (0.05 in.) when the applied load is 29,000 N (6500 lb), which of the four metals or alloys listed are possible candidates? Justify your choice(s).

A steel bar with a length of 3 m, diameter of 25 mm, modulus of elasticity of 207 GPa, and linear coefficient of thermal expansion of 0.000009 m/m/°C is fixed at both ends when the ambient temperature is 40°C. If the ambient temperature is decreased to 15°C, what internal stress will develop due to this temperature change? Is this stress tension or compression? Why?

A cylindrical rod with a length of 380 mm and a diameter of 10 mm is to be subjected to a tensile load. The rod must not experience plastic deformation or an increase in length of more than 0.9 mm when a load of 24.5 kN is applied. Which of the four materials listed in table are possible candidates? Justify your answer.
