A 100-ft cable is made using a 12-gauge (0.1055-in) steel wire and three strands of 10-gauge (0.1019-in) copper wire. Find the deflection of the cable and the stress in each wire if the cable is subjected to a tension of 380 lbf.

If you were designing a bumper for a car, would you prefer it to exhibit elastic or plastic deformation? why? consider the functions of a bumper in both a minor "fender-bender" and a major collision.

Ifa component is made of two or more materials with different modulus of elasticity (e), it is called a composite member and we calculate the factor·n". mention the formula for calculating n". also, ifn> 1, explain what will happen to the 1. transformed. gi) ifn 1, what will happen to the material when transformed material when
