Compound axial member ABC has a uniform diameter of d= 1.50 in. • Segment (1) is an aluminum [E1 = 10000 ksi] alloy. The length of segment (1) is L1 - 90 in. • Segment (2) is a copper [E2 - 17000 ksi] alloy. The length of segment (2) is L2 = 126 in. When axial force Pis applied, a strain gage attached to copper segment (2) measures a normal strain of ɛ2- 2100 µin./in. in the longitudinal direction. What is the total elongation of member ABC?
