Determine the changes in length, breadth, and thickess of a steel bar which is 5m long, 40mm wide and 30mm thick and is subjected to an axial pull of 35kN in the direction of its length. Then find the volumetric strain and final volume of the given steel bar. (Take E= 200000 N/mm2 and poisson ratio (v) = 0.32)
