In the following cases determine: The normal (direct) stress and shear stress on plane AB in each.
a)Use first principles to find the stresses on plane AB.
b)Use the formulas to find the stresses on AB
c)Use the formulas to find the principle stresses and maximum stress that will occur in the element

Draw a Mohr's circle of the elements shown.

Find: the midpoint
the radius
principle stress 1 and 2
Clearly show the position of the x face(YZ plane)
y face(XZ plane)
Principle plane 1
Principle plane 2
Now draw the plane AB onto your Mohr's circle
Find the direct and shear stresses from your graph for plane AB
(Use trig rather than relying on the accuracy of your drawing)
For question 3 and 4,indicate(draw) the plane of max shear stress and maximum magnitude principle
stress on Mohr's circle, but also on the elemental drawing given in the question.
