a) What shall be the longitudinal strain of a cylindrical vessel of diameter
'50mm' and thickness '5mm' if it is subjected to an intemal pressure
'p'? The Young's modulus of elasticity of the material is 200GPa and
modulus of rigidity is 80GPa.
b) A bar 40mm in diameter is subjected to an axial load of 40kN. The
extension of the bar over a gauge length of 200mm is 0.3mm. Find the
Young's modulus of elasticity of the material?
c) Write down the expressions relating the shear force, bending moment
and unifonnly distributed loading on a beam.
What will happen to the deflection of a cantilever beam ifthe modulus of
elasticity the beam is doubled and the second moment of area is halved?
Briefly explain the theories of failure applicable to ductile materials.

A simply supported beam of span I carries a 'udl' of intensity 'w'
throughout its span. Ifthe width 'b' ofthe beam is constant throughout
the span, what will be the beam's depth at the mid-span if the perrnissible
bending stress is '/'?
Plot the shear stress vs shear strain curves for brittle and ductile rnaterials
subjected to torsion?

Q2)
A cylinder is attached to a wall at point A by a fixed support as shown in the
diagram belou'. The half of the cylinder from
point A to point B is made of
steel (E
:
200 GPa) and has a length of I m and a diameter of I cq the halfof
the cylinder from point B to point C is rnade of aluminum
(E=70
GPa) and
has a length of I m and a diameter of 1cm. Before the cylinder is loaded, the
free end
(point
C) is separated frorn a second wall by a distance of 0.5rnm.
At what value of the load P does the cylinder first touch the second wall?
