The beauty of a bicycle wheel design in that the spokes are loaded in tension, despite the compressive force exerted by the bicyclist’s weight. consider a stainless steel (e = 195 gpa) spoke of diameter 2 mm and length 25.5 cm under a load of 1 kn. find the tensile stress, the elastic strain, and length of the spoke under the applied load and explain (qualitatively) why it would be a bad idea to place the spoke under a compressive load of 1 kn (consider buckling).
