The cable will fail when subjected to a tension of 2 kN. Determine the largest vertical load P the frame will support and calculate the internal normal force, shear force, and moment at the cross section through point C for this loading. Support Reactions: Equations of Equilibrium: For point C Sample problems and notes are…
What’s the difference between energy vs power? In the realm of physics and engineering, the concepts of energy and power are fundamental but often misunderstood. While they are closely related, they represent distinct aspects of physical systems. Energy is the ability to do work, while power is the rate at which work is done or…
What is an example of torsion force? An example of a torsional force would be anytime a force acting on an object results in a twisted or rotating motion. This twisting movement happens when an applied torque or force encounters an opposing force which generates shear strain. This opposing force could be a result of…
The sky hook is used to support the cable of a scaffold over the side of a building. If it consists of a smooth rod that contacts the parapet of a wall at points A,B, and C, determine the normal force, shear force, and moment on the cross section at points D and E. Support…
Objective The object of the experiment is to determine the material of an unknown specimen based on the material young’s modulus(E). Young’s modulus is the ratio of the stress to strain in the plastic region of the stress-strain diagram. This mechanical property is material specific. The data which was gathered during this experiment is as…
What is fatigue stress in engineering? So, what exactly is fatigue stress? Basically, it’s when a component or structure starts to weaken and break down over time due to cyclical stress or loading. Even if the stresses put on the component are within acceptable limits, fatigue failure can still occur due to the frequency of…
