A 20-cm-diameter rod is subjected to a tensile load of 1000 N at one end and is fixed at the other end. Calculate the deflection of the rod, if it is 50-cm-long.

What will be an ideal response?


Recall, to calculate deflection you would need the material type. Make sure

that you understand that you can calculate the normal stress for this problem,

but not the deflection.

Assuming a steel rod:
