Problem 8.12 A bar of rectangular cross-section, with a width of
60 mm and a thickness of 40 mm, is bent in the shape of a horse shoe
having a mean radius of 70 mm. Two equal and opposite forces of 10 kN
each are applied at a distance of 12 cm from the centre line of the middle
section so that they tend to straighten the rod. Find the maximum ten-
sile and compressive stresses and construct a diagram showing the vari-
ation of the normal stresses over the central section.
A helical compression spring made of a wire of circular cross-section is subjected to a compressive load. The maximum shear stress induced in the cross-section of the wire is 24 MPa For the same compressive load, if both the wire diameter and the mean coll diameter are doubled the maximum shear stress (in MPa) induced in the cross-section of the wire is...............
