Question: ( 1 ) The rigid bar A D is supported as shown by pin A and two steel wires ( E _ s = 3

(1) The rigid bar A D is supported as shown by pin A and two steel wires (E_s=30\times 10^6psi) at B and C. A downward load =580 lb is applied at D and the cross sectional area of each wire is 0.03 in^2. Determine (a) the normal stresses in the two wires, (b) the corresponding deflection of point D. A n s: (a)\sigma _B E=18 ksi, \sigma _C F=20 ksi (b)\Delta _D=0.018 in (2) A downward load =36 kN is applied to the tip D of the horizontal rigid bar A D that is pinned at support A and connected to two vertical links B F and C E as shown. Both links are made of aluminum (E=75 GPa) with a 12\times 20 mm rectangular cross section. Determine (a) the normal stress in link B F and (b) the displacement of point D. A n s: (a)-37.5 MPa (b)2mm(3) The brass shell (\alpha _b=20.9\times 10^-6/ C) is fully bonded as shown to the steel core (\alpha _s=11.7\times 10^-6/ C). Determine the largest allowable increase in temperature \Delta T if the allowable normal stress in the steel core is 55 MPa. Ans: 75.4^C
(a,40pt) A thin walled tube is subjected to equal magnitude torques T at both ends. The tube has an outer radius of r, wall thickness t, and shear modulus G. Determine (i) the maximum and minimum shear stresses in the tube; (ii) maximum and minimal shear strains; (iii)(relative) angle of twist; (iv) rate of twist. In total 6 quantities.
(b,20 bonus pt) The same tube is slit lengthwise as shown in picture. Under the same torques T, determine its (i) maximum shear stress and (ii) angle of twist. How do they compare to the original tube?
Hint: this is not a circular cross-section now due to the slit. Refer to textbook.
