INSTRUCTIONS
1. This is an open book on-line exam. To receive credit for a problem, you must show all the working. Answers without
working will be given ZERO credit.
2. Asking questions during exams on the post of ME 213 is strictly prohibited. Student queries may be entertained only

1. The steel bars BE and AD each have a 6 mm x
18 mm cross-section. Knowing that E = 200
GPa, the 3.2 kN force caused point C to deflect
to the right. Using α = 11.7 x 10-6 /℃, determine
(a) the overall change in temperature that causes
point C to return to its original position, (b) the
corresponding total deflection of points A and
B. (10 marks) (CLO_1, PLO_1, C3)
