## Marks 1

Consider a beam with circular cross-section of diameter $$d.$$ The ratio of the second moment of area about the neutral axis to the section modulus of...
The cross-sections of two solid bars made of the same material are shown in the figure. The square cross-section has flexural (bending) rigidity $${{\... The beams, one having square cross section and another circular cross-section,are subjected to the same amount of bending moment. If the cross section... ## Marks 2 A simply-supported beam of length$$3L$$is subjected to the loading shown in the figure. It is given that$$P = 1N,L = 1m$$and Youn... For the component loaded with a force$$F$$as shown in the figure, the axial stress at the corner point$$P$$is ... A simply supported beam of span length$$6$$m and$$75$$mm diameter carries a udl of$$1.5$$kN/m What is the maximum value of bending moment? A simply supported beam of span length$$6$$m and$$75$$mm diameter carries a udl of$$1.5$$kN/m What is the maximum value of bending stress?... A mass less beam has a loading pattern as shown in figure. The beam is rectangular cross-section with a width of 30 mm and height of 100 mm. The ma... A cantilever beam has the square cross section of 10 mm$$ \times $$10 mm. It carries a transverse load of 10 N. Considering only the bottom fibres o... A mass less beam has a loading pattern as shown in figure. The beam is rectangular cross-section with a width of 30 mm and height of 100 mm. The ma... A tapered cantilever beam of constant thickness is loaded as shown in the sketch below. The bending stress will be: ... A 6 metre long supported wooden beam of rectangular section 10 cm$$ \times $$20 cm deep is strengthened by mild steel plates 0.5 cm$$ \times  10 ...
