Two cylindrical beams each support a shear force of 14.5 N. The outside diameter of the hollow beam is 42 mm, and its wall thickness is 5 mm. Determine the diameter of the solid beam that would create the same maximum horizontal shear stress in both beams.

Two cylindrical beams each support a shear force of 11.6 N. The outside diameter of the hollow beam is 46 mm, and its wall thickness is 6 mm. Determine the diameter of the solid beam that would create the same maximum horizontal shear stress in both beams.

A polymer tee beam has cross-sectional dimensions a = 1.8 mm, b = 7.7 mm, c = 2.2 mm, and d = 3.1 mm. The vertical distance from the bottom of the beam to the centroid is 5.4824 mm. Determine the moment of inertia around a horizontal axis located at the centroid.

A polymer beam of length L = 75 mm supports a load of P = 2.1 N at its center. The beam has cross-sectional dimensions b = 2.1 mm and h = 7.3 mm. Determine the value of Q that would be used to calculate the maximum horizontal shear stress.

A polymer beam of length L = 73 mm supports a load of P = 4.1 N at its center. The beam has cross-sectional dimensions b = 2.7 mm and h = 7.6 mm. Determine the magnitude of the maximum horizontal shear stress.

Two cylindrical beams each support a shear force of 10.1 N. The outside diameter of the hollow beam is 72 mm, and its wall thickness is 5 mm. Determine the diameter of the solid beam that would create the same maximum horizontal shear stress in both beams.

Load P = 8.1 lb is produced at the nylon tip of a Regal Tip Quantum 1000 drumstick as a percussionist strikes a drumhead. The hickory shaft has a diameter of 0.53 in. and a length of L = 11.1 in. from the center of the tip to the percussionist’s hand. Assuming the percussionist’s hand acts like a fixed support and that the shaft has a constant diameter, determine the magnitude of the maximum horizontal shear stress in the shaft.

A polymer beam of length L = 73 mm supports a load of P = 4.4 N at its center. The beam has cross-sectional dimensions b = 2.8 mm and h = 7.7 mm. Determine the magnitude of the maximum horizontal shear stress.

Two tee beams are the same size and support the same shear force. Which beam has a larger maximum horizontal shear stress?

Load P = 8.0 lb is produced at the nylon tip of a Regal Tip Quantum 1000 drumstick as a percussionist strikes a drumhead. The hickory shaft has a diameter of 0.53 in. and a length of L = 10.0 in. from the center of the tip to the percussionist’s hand. Assuming the percussionist’s hand acts like a fixed support and that the shaft has a constant diameter, determine the magnitude of the maximum horizontal shear stress in the shaft.
