Thermal Stress (Thermodynamics)

[Luongo]

1. Equation F/A=-Y\alpha\DeltaT (thermal stress) gives the stress required to keep the length of a rod constant as its temperature changes. Show that if the length is permitted to change by an amount \DeltaL when its temperature changes by \DeltaT, the stress is equal to F/A = Y((\DeltaL/L_{}0)-\alpha\DeltaT) where F is the tension on the rod, L(naut) is the original length of the rod, A its cross-sectional area, alpha its coefficient of linear expansion, and Y its Young's modulus.


i don't know where to start can somebody help? this thermal stress is stressing me out

 

[Luongo]

please help any feedback I am begging you

If the length changes by dL what does the volume change by? So what does the area, A, change by? How does this affect the stress, F/A?

if the length changes the area would increase and the pressure would decrease. I'm not sure how you "Show This" though
