A solid 0.23-in.-diameter cold-rolled steel rod is pinned to fixed supports at A and B. The length of the rod is L = 21 in., its elastic modulus is E = 32000 ksi, and its coefficient of thermal expansion is a = 6.6 x 10-6 in./in./°F. Determine the temperature increase AT that will cause the rod to buckle. A L B Answer: AT =
