Straight rods of 0.30-in. diameter and 200-ft length are sometimes used to clear underground conduits of obstructions or to thread wires through a new conduit. The rods are made of highstrength steel and, for storage and transportation, are wrapped on spools of 5-ft diameter. Assuming that the yield strength is not exceeded, determine
(a) the maximum stress in a rod, when the rod, which is initially straight, is wrapped on a spool,
(b) the corresponding bending moment in the rod. Use E = 29 X 106 psi.
