    Axial deformation in composite beam

    I have to calculate the elongation of a pencil under a load. I know I have to use deflection = PL/AE but since the pencil has 2 materials in it I have to modify that equation. I know that both materials extend by the same amount. Could anyone explain to me how to get that equation?

    [thermo] pressure & steam tables related question

    you want to boil a pot of water at 110 C diameter of pot = 15cm atmospheric pressure 101 kPa what weight lid should you use? i looked up the steam tables and water boils at 110 C at 143.27 kPa so do i use that pressure or 143.27-101? (gauge pressure) i used gauge and got something...
