Question 5

What is the expression for the strain energy due to bending of a cantilever beam (length L, modulus of elasticity E and moment of inertia I?)

Question 6

A metal rod is rigidity fixed at its both ends. The temperature of the rod is increased by 100 °C. If the coefficient of linear expansion and elastic modulus of the metal rod 10×10-6/ °C and 200Gpa respectively, then what is the stress produced in the rod?

Question 7

For the two shafts connected in parallel

Question 8

A water main of 1 m diameter contains water at a pressure head of 100 meters. The permissible tensile stress in the material of the water main is 25 MPa. What is the minimum thickness of the water main? (Take g = 10 m/s2)

Question 9

A beam uniformly loaded is simply supported at ends. The deflection at the centre of the beam is 7mm. If both of the simple supports are replaced by fixed supports the new deflection of the resultant beam is
