The safe stress for a hollow steel column which carries an axial load ...
Area of the cross section of column = π/4 ( 0.302 – d2) m2
Area = load / stress .
So, π/4 ( 0.302 – d2) m2 = 21 / 125
d = 26.19cm.

The safe stress for a hollow steel column which carries an axial load ...
Given data:
Axial load on the column = 2100 kN
Safe stress for the column = 125 MN/m2
External diameter of the column = 30 cm
To find:
Internal diameter of the column
Solution:
1. First, we need to convert the axial load from kN to N.
1 kN = 1000 N
Therefore, axial load = 2100 × 1000 N = 2,100,000 N
2. We can use the formula for stress in a hollow cylinder to find the internal diameter of the column.
Stress = (Force × Internal radius) / (External radius^2 - Internal radius^2)
3. Rearranging the formula, we get:
Internal radius = ((External radius^2 - Internal radius^2) × Stress) / Force
4. Substituting the given values, we get:
External radius = 30 / 2 = 15 cm
Stress = 125 MN/m2 = 125 × 10^6 N/m2
Force = 2,100,000 N
5. Substituting these values in the formula, we get:
Internal radius = ((15^2 - r^2) × 125 × 10^6) / 2,100,000
6. Simplifying the equation, we get:
r^2 = 1.3245 × 10^6
r = √1.3245 × 10^6 = 1150.5 cm
7. Finally, the internal diameter of the column can be calculated as:
Internal diameter = 2 × Internal radius = 2 × 1150.5 cm = 2301 cm ≈ 26.19 cm
Therefore, the correct answer is option (B) 26.19 cm.
