A compound bar consists of two bars of equal length. Steel bar cross-section is 3500 mm2
and that
of brass bar is 3000 mm2
. These are subjected to a compressive load 100,000 N. If Eb = 0.2
MN/mm2
and Eb = 0.1 MN/mm2
, the stresses developed are:
(A) b = 10 N/mm2
s
= 20 N/mm2
(B) b = 8 N/mm2
s
= 16 N/mm2
(C) b = 6 N/mm2
s
= 12 N/mm2
(D) b = 5 N/mm2
s
= 10 N/mm
