For the three bolt system shown in the figure, the bolt material has shear yield strength of 200 MPa. For a factor of safety of 2, the minimum metric specification required for the bolt is

1. M8
2. M10
3. M12
4. M16

Correct Option: B

σ_y = 200 MPa
P = 19 × 10³N

σ =	P	⇒ d = 10.9 mm
	(π/4)(d₁)²

M10
