Question:

An element in uniaxial stress is subjected to compressive stresses of magnitude 6100 psi, as shown in the figure. Using Mohr's circle, determine:
(a) The stresses acting on an element oriented at a slope of 1 on 2 (see figure).
(b) The maximum shear stresses and associated normal stresses. Show all results on sketches of properly oriented elements.
