Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 3

If all the dimensions of a prismatic bar of square cross-section suspended freely from the ceiling of a roof are doubled then the total’elongation produced by its own weight will increase

Detailed Solution for Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 3

The area of bar will become 4 times, and the volume as well as weight will increase 8 times. So increase in elongation

Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 4

A round bar made of same material consists of 3 parts each of 100 mm length having diameters of 40 mm, 50 mm and 60 mm, respectively, if the bar is subjected to an axial load of 10 kN, the total elongation of the bar in mm would be (E is the modulus of elasticity in kN/mm2)

Detailed Solution for Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 4

Total elongation


Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 5

Two identical circular rods of same diameter and same length are subjected to same magnitude of axial tensile force. One of the rods is made out of mild steel having the modulus of elasticity of 206 GPa. The other rod is made out of cast iron having the modulus of elasticity of 100 GPa. Assume both the materials to be homogeneous and isotropic and the axial force causes the same amount of uniform stress in both the rods. The stresses developed are with in the proportional limit of the respective materials. Which of the following observations is correct?

Detailed Solution for Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 5

Given,
EMS = 206 GPa
ECI = 100GPa
We know that,
ΔL = (PL/AE)
Here, P, L and A is same for both the bars
∴ L ∝ 1/E

= 0.485 < 1

Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 6

A uniform, slender cylindrical rod is made of a homogeneous and isotropic material. The rod rests on a frictionless surface. The rod is heated uniformly. If the radial and longitudinal thermal stresses are represented by σr and σz respectively, then

Detailed Solution for Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 6

Since the rod is free to expand hence no thermal stresses will be generated in radial well as longitudinal direction.
∴ σ= 0 and σz = 0

Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 7

A brass bar of solid section is encased in a steel tube as shown in the diagram below:

The coefficient of expansion of steel is 11.2 x 10-6 per °C and the coefficient of expansion of brass is 16.5 x 10-6 per °C. The composite bar is heated through 60°C. Now consider the following statements:
1. The stress in brass will be tensile.
2. The stress in steel will be tensile.
3. The stress in steel will be compressive.
4. The stress in brass will be compressive.
Q. Which of these statements are correct?

Detailed Solution for Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 7

Since coefficient of thermal expansion for brass is more than steel hence brass will expand more than steel at the same temperature rise and due to greater expansion of brass, it will try to stretch the steel. Hence tensile stresses will be generated on in steel while compressive stresses will be generated in brass.

Test: Tension, Compression & Shear - 3 - Question 8

A uniform bar lying in the x - direction is subjected to pure bending. Which one of the following tensors represents the strain variation when bending moment is about the z-axis (p, q and r constants)?
