Shear center of the T-section can be shown by point S and center of gravity by point G. The correct representation of S and G for the section is :

Detailed Solution for Test: Solid Mechanics- 5 - Question 1

Shear centre is the point from which if a concentrated load passes then, there will be only bending and no twisting. It is also called centre of flexure. It is that point through which resultant of shear passes.

The shear centre (S) and centre of gravity (G) of some sections is shown below.

If the depth of a simply supported beam carrying an isolated load at its center, is doubled the deflection of the beam at the center will be changed by a factor of
Detailed Solution for Test: Solid Mechanics- 5 - Question 5


The central deflection in a simply supported beam due to point load,

As the depth of the beam is double

Test: Solid Mechanics- 5 - Question 6

A force P is applied at a distance x from the end of the beam as shown in the figure. What would be the value of x so that the displacement at ‘A’ is equal to zero?
Detailed Solution for Test: Solid Mechanics- 5 - Question 6

Load at point A is shown in figure below


⇒ x = L/3 = 0.33 L

_______1
_______2
From (2) ⇒
 0.02 × 6 = 0.12
substitute in equation (1)

⇒ l = 1.2 m

Test: Solid Mechanics- 5 - Question 8

A beam 40mm wide, 80mm deep, is freely supported over a span of 2m. A weight of 50 N is dropped on to the middle of the beam from a height of 40mm. Calculate the maximum instantaneous stress and deflection. E=200 GPa.
Detailed Solution for Test: Solid Mechanics- 5 - Question 8

Let W be equivalent static load that will produce same deflection as dynamic load applied from a height of 40 mm. Strain energy in beam due to dropping of 50 N load = 50 (40 + δ)

Strain energy in the beam due to load W applied gradually = ½ Wδ

50(40 + δ) = ½ Wδ                                            (1)

Substituting in (1)
