Question 79
Open questionXE-DMCQ2 marksNeeds review
A rectangular plate of uniform thickness having initial length
and width
is placed between two rigid immovable walls. The temperature of the plate is increased by
. The plate is free to expand along the
and
directions. The mid-surface of the plate remains in the
-plane. The Poisson’s ratio is
and the coefficient of thermal expansion is
. Assuming that the plate is initially free of stresses, the change in length of the plate after the increase in temperature is given by

A mass
kg is attached to a spring as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the mass and the inclined plane is 0.25. Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s
and that static and kinetic friction coefficients are the same. Equilibrium of the mass is impossible if the spring force is
