An aluminum bar with a 1.75-in. gage length, 0.220-in. width, and 0.085-in. thickness is loaded in tension. At the proportional limit, a load of 650 lb elongates the gage length by 0.00583 in. and reduces the width by 0.0002 in. Determine the Poisson’s ratio.

A steel plate has a rectangular hole at its center and four circular holes at the corners. At an initial temperature of Ti = –20°C, the plate is 100 mm wide, 115 mm long, and 11 mm thick. The rectangular hole is 35 mm wide and 85 mm long. The circular holes have a diameter of 25 mm. At a final temperature of Tf = 44°C, determine the thickness of the plate.

An upward load is applied to a circular rod that has a diameter of 10.28 mm. The rod is connected to the ground using a pin that has a diameter of 9.59 mm. If the average shear stress in the pin is limited to 190 MPa, determine the maximum load that can be applied to this connection.

An upward load is applied to a circular rod that has a diameter of 10.97 mm. The rod is connected to the ground using a pin that has a diameter of 9.89 mm. If the normal stress in the rod is limited to 275 MPa and the average shear stress in the pin is limited to 180 MPa, determine the maximum load that can be applied to this connection.

A load of P = 150 lb is applied to beam ABC. Bar (1) has a circular cross section with a diameter of 0.77 in. Determine the normal stress in bar (1). Let a = 34 in., b = 16 in., and c = 8 in.

A triangular piece of rubber is stretched causing A to move downward. Determine the magnitude of the shear strain that occurs at A when a = 39.7 mm, b = 79.4 mm, and c = 54.4 mm.

A load of 88 kN is applied to a triangular shape that protrudes 15.3 mm from a brass plate. The triangular shape has a base of 26.9 mm and a height of 18.2 mm. Determine the average shear stress between the plate and the protrusion.

An upward load is applied to a circular rod that has a diameter of 10.67 mm. The rod is connected to the ground using a pin that has a diameter of 9.66 mm. If the average shear stress in the pin is limited to 160 MPa, determine the maximum load that can be applied to this connection.

A Great Value can weighs 1.04 lb and is 2.89 in. in diameter. A Libby’s can weighs 1.09 lb and is 2.92 in. in diameter. What is the largest bearing stress that occurs between the cans and the table? Assume each can has a smooth base and sits flat on the table.

A load of 37 kN is applied to a circular shape that protrudes 14.4 mm from a brass plate. The circular shape has a diameter of 17.2 mm. Determine the average shear stress between the plate and the protrusion.
