Two rods of equal cross sections, one of...

Two rods of equal cross sections, one of copper and the other of steel, are joined to form a composite rod of length 2.0 m at `20^@C`, the length of the copper rod is 0.5 m. When the temperature is raised to `120^@C`, the length of composite rod increases to 2.002m. If the composite rod is fixed between two rigid walls and thus not allowed to expand, it is found that the lengths of the component rods also do not change with increase in temperature. Calculate Young's moulus of steel. (The coefficient of linear expansion of copper, `alpha_c=1.6xx10^(-5@)C` and Young's modulus of copper is `1.3xx10^(13)N//m^(2)`).

A composite rod is made by joining a copper rod, end to end, with a second rod of different material but of the same area of cross section. At 25^(@)C , the composite rod is 1 m long and the copper rod is 30 cm long. At 125^(@)C the length of the composte rod increases by 1.91 mm . When the composite rod is prevented from expanding by bolding it between two rigid walls, it is found that the constituent reds have remained unchanged in length in splite of rise of temperature.
