6. The diameter of a piston of the steam engine is 300 mm and the maximum steam pressure
is 0.7 N/mm. If the maximum permissible compressive stress for the piston rod material is
40 N/mm, find the size of the piston rod.
[Ans. 40 mm]
7. Two circular rods of 50 mm diameter are connected by a knuckle joint, as shown in Fig. 4.21, by a pin
of 40 mm in diameter. If a pull of 120 kN acts at cach end, find the tensile stress in the rod and shear
stress in the pin.
(Ans. 61 N/mm; 48 N/mm]
