An aluminum rod is press fitted onto an aluminum collar. The collar has an inner radius of 1 cm and an outer radius of 2 cm. Given the rod has a diameter of 2.01cm and the young's modulus of aluminum is 69 GPa

The question is incomplete. The complete question is --

An aluminum rod is press fitted onto an aluminum collar. The collar has an inner radius of 1 cm and an outer radius of 2 cm. Given the rod has a diameter of 1.01 cm and the young's modulus of aluminum is 69 GPa, determine the following :

1. the interference value, i

2. the radial pressure at the interference of the collar and the rod

3. the maximum effective stress in the collar

4. if the yield strength of aluminium is 200 MPa and assume a safety factor of 1.5, will the aluminium collar break

Solution:

Given :

Inner radius of the collar = 1 cm

So, inner diameter, = 2 cm

Outer radius of the collar = 12 cm

So, outer diameter, = 4 cm

The aluminium rod diameter, d = 1.01 cm

Now, from the figure, we can see that there will be no interference and so the rod will easily insert inside the collar.

1. So, the interference , i =0

2. The radial pressure is also 0.

3. There will be no stress developed. So the maximum effective stress is 0

4. The collar will not break

the warning light flashes for a second or two when the engine starts. if it stays on, there's must be something wrong with the coolant. you should never dare to continue driving when the light is on. pull over as soon as possible and shut the engine off.

hope this is what you're talking about
