Question

Transcribed Image Text:4. An extruded bar of aluminum alloy has the cross section shown in Fig. 4. A 1-meter length of this bar
is used as a cantilever beam. A concentrated load P = 1.25 kN is applied at the free end and makes an
angle of a = 10 degree with the y-axis passing through the centroid. The view in Fig. 3 is from the free
end toward the fixed end of the beam.
a) Determine the orientation of the neutral axis. What locations potentially have maximum stress?
b) Determine the maximum tensile and compressive stresses in the beam. Note: Neglect torsional effect.
(Ans I₂ = 184,333 mm², I₂ = 189,333 mmª, Izy = 66,000 mm*, t,max
