Prob. 3.4-10. An axial load P is applied to a tapered rod. as shown in Fig. P3.4-10. The radius of the rod is given by Fo 7(x) = [1 + ( - [1 +(x/L)] where ror(0). (a) Determine a symbolic expression for the elongation of this tapered bar in terms of the parameters P. L ro, and E, and (b) solve for the elongation in inches if P = 2 kips, L = 100 in., r = 20 in., and the rod is made of an aluminum alloy for which E= 10 × 10³ ksi. r(x)/ L P3.4-10
