Problem 8-12 A bar of rectangular cross-section, with a width of 60 mm and a thickness of 40 mm, is bent in the shape of a horse shoe having a mean radius of 70 mm. Two equal and opposite forces of 10 kN each are applied at a distance of 12 cm from the centre line of the middle section so that they tend to straighten the rod. Find the maximum ten- sile and compressive stresses and construct a diagram showing the vari- ation of the normal stresses over the central section.

A fire extinguisher tank is designed for an internal pressure of 825 psi. The tank has an outer diameter of 4.5 in. and thickness of O.OS in. Calculate the longitudinal stress, the circumferential stress, and the maximum shear stresses (out-of-plane and in-plane) at the outer surface of the tank.
The rectangular bar shown is connected to a support bracket with a 24 mm diameter pin. The width of the rectangular bar is 70 mm and its thickness is 15 mm. The bearing stress in the bar cannot exceed 120 MPa. Determine the maximum value of Pmax that can be supported based solely on consideration of the bearing stress in the bar. Note: This question is not asking about any stresses in the support bracket...just bearing stress in the rectangular bar.

6.13 A brass rod is a firm fit inside a steel tube 2 cm inside diameter and 4 cm outside diameter when the materials are at 15°C. If the rod and tube are now heated to a temperature of 150° C, calculate the maximum stresses in the brass and steel. Take the coeffi- cient of expansion for steel and brass as 10.8 × 10-6 and 18 x 10-6 per °C respectively. For steel E = 200 GPa and for brass E = 85 GPa. Poisson's ratio for both = 1/3.

A steel rod 20 mm in diameter passes centrally through a steel tube of 25 mm internal diameter and 30 mm external diameter. The tube is 800 mm long and is closed by rigid washers of negligible thickness which are fastened by nuts threaded on the rod. The nuts are tightened until the compressive load on the tube is 20 kN.

Prob. # 5] A steel rod of 25 mm diameter is fitted inside a brass tube of 25 mm internal diameter and 375 mm external diameter. The projecting ends of the steel rod are provided with nuts and washers. The nuts are tightened up so as to produce a pull of 5 kN in the rod. The compound is then placed in a lathe and the brass is turned down to 4 mm thickness. Calculate the stresses in the two materials.
