Strength Of Materials

  1. The Mohr's circle of plane stress for a point in a body is shown. The design is to be done on the basis of the maximum shear stress theory for yielding. Then, yielding will just begin if the designer chooses a ductile material whose yield strength is
    1. 45 MPa
    2. 50 MPa
    3. 90 MPa
    4. 100 MPa
Correct Option: C

Applying maximum shear stress theory

τmax =
σy.p
=
σx - σy
22

σY.P. = σx – σy = –100 –(–10)
= –90 MPa
