MECHANICS OF DEFORMABLE BODIES (EMech 3) Assignment No. 4 Solve the following Problems: 1. Find the stresses in members BC, BD, and CF for the truss shown. Indicate tension or compression. The cross -sectional area of each member is 1600 mm? 8 2. The rigid bars ABC and CD are supported by pins at A and D by a steel rod at B. There is @ roller conection between the bars at C. Gompute the vertical displacement of point C caused by the 50 KN load. 3. The rigid bar of negligible weight is supported as shown in the figure. If Wis 80 kN, compute the temperature change of the assembly that will cause a tensile stress of 55 MPa in the steel rod. Use the following data: ‘A (mm) “=a(mimc) E (GPay ‘Steel rod 320 ii 7x 10 200 Bronze rod 1300 89x 10% a 3m 4. The lap joint is fastened with four diameter rivets, The working stresses are 60 MPa for rivets in shear and 110 MPa for plates in bearing, Find the maximum axial load P that can be applied to the joint. Assume that the load is equally distributed ‘among the rivets, T P | P — 1 0 I> | is0mm \ P 25mm, > P 25mm 5. Ahollow steel tube with an inside diameter of 100 mm carry an axial tensile load of 400 kN. Determine the smallest allowable outside diameter of the tube if the working stress is 120 MPa. 6. A rigid bar AB is hinged at A and is supported by a rod at C. The rod is pin- connected at D as shown. Use E= 250 GPa. Neglect the deflection of the bar due to bending. a) If the displacement of the loaded end B of bar is 3 mm, determine the weight w. b) Determine the tensile stress induced in bar CD by the load W= 100 KN. ©) If the allowable stress in rod CD is 124 MPa, what weight W can be safely applied? c 2m lew 36 mm A D B 7. Awater tank 3m in diameter and 6 m high is made from a steel having a thickness of 12 mm. (a) When the tank is filed with water, determine the circumferential stress, (b) Determine the longitudinal stress at the bottom of the tank when it is, filled with water. (¢) If the circumferential stross is limited to § MPa, what is the the tank maybe filled? maximum height of water to 8. ‘The rectangular piece of wood, 50 mm by 100 mm, is used as a compression block. The grain of the wood makes a 20° angle with the horizontal, as shown in Figure 2. Determine the largest axial force P that can be applied safely ifthe allowable stresses on the plane of the grain are 20 MPa for compression and 5 MPa for shear. Pp aA VISIT Too mm ‘9. A'50 mm diameter rubber rod is placed in a hole with rigid, lubricated walls. There is no clearance between the rod and the sides of the hole. The length of the rod is 300 mm. Determine the change in the length of the rod when an 8 kN load is epied. Use Ex 40 MPa andy 045 for nutter, 10. The timber member has a cross-sectional area of 1750 mm? and its modulus of elasticity is 12 GPa. Compute the change in the total length of the member after the loads shown in the figure are applied. 25kN ‘2OKN ZokN err hom [3m 3m __,f - END - Good luck! God Bless!
