Problem Solving: Solve the following problems below. Show your solution. (20 points each)
1. Two Solid cylindrical rods AB and BC are welded together at B and loaded as
shown in Fig. P-1. Knowing that d1=50 mm and d2 = 30 mm, find average
normal stress at the midsection of (a) rod AB, (b) rod BC.
2. Two steel plates are to be held together by means of 16-mm diameter high
strength steel bolts fitting snugly inside cylindrical brass spacers as shown
in Fig. P-2. Knowing that the average normal stress must not exceed 200
MPa in the bolts and 130 MPa in the spacers, determine the outer diameter
of the spacers that yields the most economical and safe design.
