MCQ (Single Correct Answer)

-0.6

A solid steel cube constrained on all six faces is heated so that the temperature rises uniformly by $$\Delta T.$$ If the thermal coefficient of the material is $$\alpha $$, young's modulus is $$E$$ and the Poisson's ratio is $$\upsilon $$, the thermal stress developed in the cube due to heating is

$$ - {{\alpha \left( {\Delta T} \right)E} \over {\left( {1 - 2\upsilon } \right)}}$$

$$ - {{2\alpha \left( {\Delta T} \right)E} \over {\left( {1 - 2\upsilon } \right)}}$$

$$ - {{3\alpha \left( {\Delta T} \right)E} \over {\left( {1 - 2\upsilon } \right)}}$$

$$ - {{\alpha \left( {\Delta T} \right)E} \over {3\left( {1 - 2\upsilon } \right)}}$$
