Two plates are connected with two bolts and transmit load P = 7.6 kN. Each plate is 5.9 mm thick, and each bolt has a diameter of 10.9 mm. Determine the average shear stress in the bolts.

Before an automotive engine is started, its timing belt has a length of 42.00 in. and a temperature of 70°F. At the engine operating temperature of 210°F, it is determined that the belt has elongated to 42.04 in. What is the coefficient of thermal expansion of the belt?

A short column is loaded in compression. Segment (1) has a solid cross section with a diameter of 1.10 in. Segment (2) is hollow with an outside diameter of 1.50 in. and a wall thickness of 0.20 in. If segment (2) has a normal stress of 20 ksi, determine the normal stress in segment (1).

The rigid beam BC is supported by rods (1) and (2). For a uniformly distributed load of w = 5.0 kN/m, determine the force in rod (1). Assume a = 3.50 m and L = 5.40 m.

What does list-style: none; do when applied to a element?

Two plates are connected with two bolts and transmit load P = 8.0 kN. Each plate is 5.2 mm thick, and each bolt has a diameter of 10.5 mm. Determine the average shear stress in the bolts.

A steel [E = 215 GPa, ν = 0.282] rod with a circular cross section is used as a weight hanger. The straight part of the rod is 135-mm long and has a diameter of 4.4 mm. Determine the longitudinal strain in this portion of the rod when it supports a tensile load of 11.0 N.

A steel [E = 210 GPa, ν = 0.282] rod with a circular cross section is used as a weight hanger. The straight part of the rod is 130-mm long and has a diameter of 4.2 mm. Determine the magnitude of the lateral strain in this portion of the rod when it supports a tensile load of 9.8 N.

Axial loads are applied with rigid bearing plates to the solid cylindrical rods shown. If F1 = 34 kips, F2 = 14 kips, F3 = 28 kips, and F4 = 36 kips, determine the absolute value of the axial load in rod (2).

A short column is loaded in compression. Segment (1) has a solid cross section with a diameter of 1.20 in. Segment (2) is hollow with an outside diameter of 1.60 in. and a wall thickness of 0.20 in. If segment (2) has a normal stress of 12 ksi, determine the normal stress in segment (1).
