What is the unit for modulus of elasticity?
What are the units of measurement for wooden and steel trusses?
What is a cylindrical section without any joints called?
If given the change in length of a beam, what other parameter is required to calculate the strain?
A tensile load of 50 kN is gradually applied to a circular bar of 5 cm diameter and 5 m long. What is the strain energy absorbed by the rod (E = 200 GPa)?
A point load is applied to the center of a simply supported beam with length L and flexural rigidity EI. The ratio of the maximum bending moment to the maximum deflection of the beam is:
In a cantilever carrying uniformly varying load starting from zero at the free end, the bending moment diagram is
At a point in a strained material, the normal stress and shear stress across two perpendicular planes are 70 N/mm² and 60 N/mm² respectively. Determine the resultant stress on a plane inclined at 35.8 degrees.
A column with a length of 3 meters has a diameter of 44 mm. If the column is fixed at both ends and the modulus of elasticity is 2 x 105 N/mm2, calculate the safe load acting on the column. (Let the factor of safety be 2.5)
Consider two bars A and B. The thermal expansion coefficient and Young's modulus of bar A are twice those of bar B. Assume that both bar A and B are subjected to the same temperature increase.
P = ratio of thermal stress in A to B
Q = ratio of thermal strain in A to B
