Question 1

The point of contra flexure is a point where:

Question 2

A solid circular shaft is subjected to a bending moment M and twisting moment T. What is the equivalent twisting Te which will produce the same maximum shear stress as the above combination?

Question 3

Maximum deflection of a cantilever beam of length L carrying uniformly distributed load ‘w’ per unit length will be
[Where E=modulus of elasticity of beam material and I=moment of inertia of beam cross-section]

Question 4

If Description: F:\GradeStack Courses\GATE Tests (Sent by Ravi)\GATE-22-April\GATE-IES-ME-Strength-of-Materials_files\image413.pngand E denote the crushing stress and young’s modulus for the material of a column, then the Euler formula can be applied for determination of clipping load of a column made of this material only, if its slenderness ration is

Question 5

At point in two-dimensional stress system Description: F:\GradeStack Courses\GATE Tests (Sent by Ravi)\GATE-22-April\GATE-IES-ME-Strength-of-Materials_files\image100.png. What is the radius of the Mohr circle for stress drawn with a scale of 1cm = 10N/mm2 ?

Question 6

A uniformly distributed load W (in kN/m) is acting over the entire length of a 3 m long cantilever beam. If the shear force at the mid-point of cantilever is 6 kN, what is the value of W?

Question 7

What is the strain energy stored in a body of volume V due to gradually applied load? (E is young's modulus of elasticity)

Question 8

If E, G and K denotes Young’s modulus, Modulus of rigidity and Bulk Modulus, respectively, for an elastic material, then which one of the following can be possible true for certain value of Poisson’s ratio.

Question 9

A solid uniform metal bar of diameter D and length L is hanging vertically from its upper end. The elongation of the bar due to self-weight is

Question 10

Consider the following statement for a pressure vessel which is subjected to internal pressure:
1). Radial stress at inner radius is always zero.
2). Radial stress at outer radius is always zero.
3). The tangential stress is always higher than other stresses.
4). The tangential stress is always lower than other stresses.
Which of these statement are correct?
