We have that for the Question, it can be said that the amount by which the length of the stack decreases is
From the question we are told
A copper (Young's modulus 1.1 x 1011 N/m2) cylinder and a brass (Young's modulus 9.0 x 1010 N/m2) cylinder are stacked end to end, as in the drawing. Each cylinder has a radius of 0.24 cm.
A compressive force of F = 7900 N is applied to the right end of the brass cylinder. Find the amount by which the length of the stack decreases.
Generally the equation for copper cylinder is mathematically given as
[tex]dl=\frac{Flo}{yA}[/tex]
[tex]dl=\frac{7900*3*10^-^2}{1.1*10^{11}*\pi(0.24*10^{-2})^2}[/tex]
[tex]dl=1.19064778*10^-^4[/tex]
Generally the equation for brass cylinder is mathematically given as
[tex]dl=\frac{7900*5*10^-^2}{9*10^{10}*\pi(0.24*10^{-2})^2}[/tex]
[tex]dl=2.43*10^{-4}[/tex]
Therefore Total change in length
[tex]dl'=1.191*10^-^4+(2.43*10^{-4})[/tex]
[tex]dl'=3.621*10^{-4}m[/tex]
