Question: The stress components in a Cartesian coordinate system at a point P are given by ( i j ) = ( [ 3 , 2

The stress components in a Cartesian coordinate system at a point P are given by
(ij)=([3,2,2],[2,4,0],[2,0,2])
Find:
a) The traction at P on a plane normal to the x1 axis.
b) The traction at P on the plane whose normal has direction ratios 1:-3:2
c) The traction at P on a plane through P parallel to the plane x1+2x2+3x3=1
d) The principal stress components at P
e) The directions of the principal axes of stress at P. Verify that they are mutually orthogonal.
