- Compare the angle of twist 1 for a thin-walled circular tube (see figure) calculated from the approximate theory for thin-walled bars with the angle of twist 2 calculated from the exact theory of torsion for circular bars, Express the ratio 12terms of the non-dimensional ratio ß = r/t. Calculate the ratio of angles of twist for ß = 5, 10, and 20. What conclusion about the accuracy of the approximate theory do you draw from these results?arrow_forwardRepeat Problem 10.4-41 for the loading shown in the figure.arrow_forwardA large precast concrete panel for a warehouse is raised using two sets of cables at two lift lines, as shown in the figure part a. Cable 1 has a length L1 = 22 Ft, cable 2 has a length L2= 10 ft, and the distance along the panel between lift points Band D is d = 14 ft (see figure part b). The total weight of the panel is W = 85 kips. Assuming the cable lift Forces F at each lift line are about equal, use the simplified model of one half of the panel in figure part b to perform your analysis for the lift position shown. Find the required cross-sectional area AC of the cable if its breaking stress is 91 ksi and a factor of safety of 4 with respect to failure is desired.arrow_forward
- A cable and pulley system at D is used to bring a 230-lcg pole (ACB) to a vertical position, as shown in the Figure part a. The cable has tensile force T and is attached at C. The length L of the pole is 6.0m, the outer diameter is d = 140 mm. and the wall thickness is t = 12 mm. The pole pivots about a pin at A in figure part b. The allowable shear stress in the pin is 60 MPa and the allowable bearing stress is 90 MPa. Find the minimum diameter of the pin at A in order to support the weight of the pole in the position shown in the figure part a.arrow_forwardRepeat Problem 11.3-9. Use two C 150 × 12.2 steel shapes and assume that E = 205 GPa and L = 6 m.arrow_forwardA cable and pulley system in the figure part a supports a cage of a mass 300 kg at B. Assume that this includes the mass of the cables as well. The thickness or each of the three steel pulleys is t = 40 mm. The pin diameters are dPA= 25 mm, dB= 30 mm. and dc= 22 mm (see figure part a and part b). (a) Find expressions for the resultant forces acting on the pulleys at A, B. and C in terms of cubic tension T. (b) What is the maximum weight W that can be added to the cage at B based on the following allowable stresses? Shear stress in the pins is 50 MPa; bearing stress between the pin and the pulley is 110 MPa.arrow_forward

The center of gravity of each child is 8 ft from the fulcrum. The board is 19 ft long, 8 in. wide, and 1.5 in. thick. What is the maximum bending stress in the board?arrow_forward

The slack is removed from the cables by rotating the turnbuckles until the assembly is snug but with no initial stresses. Afterward, the turnbuckles are tightened by 1.5 turns. Calculate the forces in the tube and the cables and determine the shortening of the tube.
