Question

A state of stress that occurs at a point on the free surface of the of a solid body is = 50 MPa σ x , =10 MPa σ y , and = −15 MPa xy τ .

a. Evaluate the two principal normal stresses and the one principal shear stress that can be found by coordinate system rotations in the x-y plane and give the coordinate system rotations.
b. Determine the maximum normal stress and the maximum shear stress at this point.
c. Sketch the rotations and stress magnitudes

Answer 1

I think its A) 5 MPa , 55 MPa

B) ms = 55 MPa, mss= 25 MPa

α = 50 MPa, α = 10 MPa , t = -15 MPa

Answer 2

A) 5 MPa , 55 MPa

B) maximum stress = 55 MPa, maximum shear stress = 25 MPa

Step-by-step explanation:

using the given Data

free surface of a solid body

α
`_(x)` = 50 MPa, α
`_(y)` = 10 MPa , t
`_(xy)` = -15 MPa
