A cylindrical specimen of aluminum having a diameter of 0.75 inches and a length of 8 inches is deformed elastically in tension with a force of 11,000 lb. Assume the following properties: Modulus of Elasticity: 10 Mpsi; Yield Strength: 40 kpsi; Tensile Strenght: 50 kpsi; Percent Elongation: 17; Poisson's Ratio: .33 Determine the following: (a) The amount by which this specimen will elongate in the direction of the applied stress (b) The change in diameter of the specimen. Will the diameter increase or decrease?

A birthday candle is 2.5 inches long and 0.75 cm in diameter. It’s made of paraffin wax, which is a mixture of various hydrocarbons, but for the sake of argument we’ll assume it’s all C31H64, since that’s the major component. Its density is 0.90 g/cm3 paraffin. If air is 20.95% O2 by volume, and the density of O2 is 1.43 g/L, then how many liters of air will the candle consume if it completely burns up? (Note that paraffin combines...
