A 120 in. annealed rod with a crosssectional area of 0.86 in.2 was extruded from a 5083-O aluminum alloy and axially loaded. Under load, the length of the rod increased to 120.15 in. No plastic deformation occurred.

(a) Find the modulus of elasticity of the material and calculate its allowable tensile stress, assuming it to be 50% of the tensile yield stress.

(b) Calculate the tensile stress and the axial load applied to the rod.

(c) Compare the calculated tensile stress with the allowable tensile stress, and find the absolute value of elongation of the rod for the allowable stress.
