Q5:Determine the average normal stress in rod AB if the load has a mass of 50 kg. The diameter of rod AB is
8 mm.
Q6:The control arm is subjected to the loading shown in Fig.. Determine
to the nearest 5 mm the required diameter of the steel pin at A and C if the
factor of safety for shear is F.S. = 1.5 and the failure shear stress for
the steel is τfail = 82.5 MPa.
Fig2.
Q8:Determine the maximum Q9:If the bolt head and the supporting bracket are made
average shear stress developed of the same material having a failure shear stress of
in the 30-mm-diameter pin. τfail = 120 MPa, determine the maximum allowable force P
that can be applied to the bolt so that it does not pull
through the plate. Apply a factor of safety of F.S. = 2.5
against shear failure.(Ref fig 2)

Q10:Determine the average Q11:f the force P causes the rigid arm ABC to rotate
normal strains in the two wires clockwise about pin A through an angle of 0.02°, determine
in Fig.1 if the ring the normal strain in wires BD and CE.
at A moves to A.
