2. Q.4 The intensity of resultant stress on a plane AB is shown below at a Point in a material under
stress is 80 N/mm2
and inclined at an angle of 30° to the normal to that plane. The normal component
of stress on another plane BC, at right angles to the plane AB is 60 N/mm2
.Determine:
a. The resultant stress on the plane BC.
b. Principal stresses and their directions.
c. Maximum shear stresses and their planes.

Q.5 (a) A bar 30mm×30mm×250mm long is subjected to a pull of 90 kN in the direction of its length. The
extension of the bar was found to be 0.125 mm, while the decrease in each lateral dimension is found to be
0.00375 mm. Find the Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s ratio, Modulus of rigidity, and Bulk modulus for the
material of the bar.

(b) A cube of material is under the action of a compressive stress on its faces. If the volume of the cube
decreases by 0.1%, Find the uniform stress in the cube. Also find the percentage reduction in the length of a
side of the cube. Take E = 2×105
N/mm2
and µ=0.3.
