Strength of Materials (Mathematical Problem-3)


 
## A body is subjected to a tensile stress of 1200 MPa on one plane and another tensile stress of 600 MPa on a plane at right angles to the former. It is also subjected to a shear stress of 400 MPa on the same planes. The maximum normal stress will be? 

Solution:

Assume,
              Stress in x direction σx = 1200 MPa
              Stress in y direction σy = 600 MPa
              Shear stress Ï„xy = 400 MPa
              Maximum normal stress σmax =?

We know that,
So, Maximum Normal stress = 1400 MPa
