Two rods of different materials but of the same sectional area have lengths `L_1` and `L_2`. IF their Young's moduli are `Y_1` and `Y_2` respectively. Then calculate the equivalent Young's modulus of the composite system when the two rods are joined along their lengths.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`[(Y_1Y_2(l_1+l_2))/(L_1Y_2+L_2Y_1)]`
