Note: All questions are compulsory and carry 4 marks each.

Q.1: Choose the correct answer from the given choices. (A) Principal plane is the plane on which shear stress components are (a) Maximum (b) Minimum (c) Zero (d) 1

(B) Stress vector has (a) One normal and two shear components (b) Two normal and one shear component (c) One normal and one shear component (d) Two normal and two shear components (C) ..of material points before and after deformation is defined by displacement vector. (a) Stress (b) Position (c) Strain (d) Velocity

(D) Gravitational force is a (a) Shear Force (b) Surface Force (c) Impulse Force (d) Body Force Q.2: Derive Cauchys stress formula. OR Define state of strain at a point? Derive the deformation in the neighbourhood of a point. Q.3: What are rectangular stress components? Draw rectangular components for each plane. Also define body force and surface force. OR The following displacement field is imposed on a body

u=(xyi +3x2zj+4k)10-2
Consider a point P and a neighbouring point Q where PQ has the following direction cosines

nx= 0.200, ny=0.800, nz=0.555 Point P has coordinates (2,1,3). If PQ=s, find the components of PQ after deformation. Q.4: What is deviatoric state of stress? Decompose state of stress into hydrostatic and pure shear states. OR At a point P in a body, x=10000 N/cm2, y= -5000 N/cm2 , z= -5000 N/cm2, xy= yz= zx=10000 N/cm2. Determine the normal and shearing stresses on a plane that is equally inclined to all the three axes i.e. nx=ny=nz=1/3. Q5: What are compatibility conditions. Explain and derive the same. OR Derive the expression for the change of length of a linear element.
