A steel teape is placed around the earth...

A steel teape is placed around the earth at the equator. When the temperature is `0^(0)C` neglecting the expansion of the earth, the neglecting between the tape and the ground if the temperature of the tape rises to `30^(0)C`, is nearly `(alpha_(steel) = 11 xx 10^(-6) // K)`

A heavy brass bar has projections at its ends as shown in the figure. Two find steel wires, fastened between the projections, are just taut (zero tension) when the whole systeam is at 0^(0)C . What is the tensile stress in the steel wires when the temperature of the systeam is raised to 300^(0)C ? Given that alpha_("brass") = 20 xx 10^(-6 ^(@))C^(-1) alpha_("steel") = 12 xx 10^(-6@)C^(-1) Y_("steel") = 2 xx 10^(11) Nm^(-2)
