A strain gage that has a nominal resistance of 350

and a gage factor of 2.0 is mounted on a 2.5-cm x

1.2-cm x 30-cm 7075 aluminum rod (E=72 GPa) and

connected to a 14 Wheatstone Bridge circuit. The

aluminum rod is in axial tension only along its long

axis, thus the strain gage senses axial strain. If the

Wheatstone bridge circuit has an output of 1.1 mV

for an input of 5 V, what is the magnitude of the

applied load in kN to the nearest 100N?
