MECHANICS OF SOLIDES : UNIT - 1 STRESS, STRAIN AND DEFORMATION OF SOLIDS TWO MARKS QUESTIONS

STRESS, STRAIN AND DEFORMATION OF SOLIDS
 TWO MARKS QUESTIONS:

1.      A rod of diameter 30mm and length 400mm was found to elongate 0.35mm when it was subjected to a load of 65KN. compute the modulus of elasticity of the material of this rod. (APR/MAY 2011)

Sol:                  Elongation ∂L = PL/AE
                                                     E=PL/A∂L
                                                        =   65x10³x400   
                                                            π/4 x(30)²x0.35          
                                                       =   105.092 N/mm²
2. What is strain energy and write its unit in S.I. System? (APR/MAY 2011, Nov/Dec 2013)
            When an elastic material is deformed due to application of external force, internal resistance is developed in the material of the body. Due to deformation, some work is done by the internal resistance developed in the body, which is stored in the form of energy. This energy is known as strain energy. It is expressed in N-m.
3. State Hooke’s law. (APR/MAY 2010, May/June 2013)
  It states that when a material is loaded, within its elastic limit, the stress is directly proportional to the strain.
Stress α strain
σ      α     e
E = σ / e Unit is N/mm²
                        Where, E – Young’s Modulus,
                                    σ – Stress,
                                    e - Strain.
4. Define Bulk modulus. (APR/MAY 2010)
            When a body is stressed, within its elastic limit, the ratio of direct stress to the corresponding volumetric strain is constant. This ratio is known as Bulk Modulus.
                        Bulk Modulus = Direct stress/ Volumetric strain
5. Define Poison’s Ratio. (May/June 2009)
            When a body is stressed within its elastic limit, the ratio of lateral strain to the longitudinal strain is constant for a given material.
            Poisson’s ratio, or 1/m = Lateral strain/Longitudinal strain.
6. What is Thermal stress? (May/June 2009)

            When a material is free to expand or contract due to change in temperature, no stress and strain will be developed in the material. But when the material is rigidly fixed at both the ends, the change in length is prevented. Due to change in temperature, stress will be developed in the material. Such stress is known as thermal stress.

7. The strain induced in an MS bar of rectangular section having width equal to twice the depth is 2.5x10^-5. The bar is subjected to a tensile load of 4KN. Find the section dimensions of the bar Take E=0.2x10^6 N/mm².  (Nov/Dec’ 2008)
Given: e= 2.5x10^-5, P=4x10^3 N, E=0.2x10^6 N/mm²
To find: Breadth b, Depth d
Sol:  Stress, σ = E x e = 0.2x10^6 x 2.5x10^-5


     σ = 5 N/mm²

                                A = P/ σ = 4x10^3/5
                                       = 800 mm²
                        Area, A = b x d    [b = 2d]
                                       = 2d x d
                             800    = 2d²
                                 d    = 20mm;         b=2d=2 x 20 = 40 mm.

8. Define Proof Resilience and Modulus of Resilience. (Nov/Dec’2008, May/June 2013, Nov/Dec’2013)
            The maximum strain energy that can be stored in a material within its elastic limit is known as proof resilience.
            It is the Proof resilience of the material per unit volume.
                        Modulus of resilience =   Proof resilience
                                                                 Volume of the body

            Given:
Young’s Modulus E = 120 G Pa = 120x10^9 Pa =120x10^9 N/m² = 120x10³ N/mm²
Shear Modulus, G = 45Gpa = 45 x 10³ N/mm²
            Solution: Young’s Modulus, E =   9KG
                                                                  3K + G
                                                120x10³ = 9 x K x 45 x 10³
                                                                     3 K + 45 x 10³
                   120x10³ [3 K + 45 x 10³] = 9 x K x 45 x 10³
                                    3 K + 45 x 10³   = 3.375 K
                                    45 x 10³   = 0.375 K

            Solution:               Stress = Load / Area
                                           σ = Load / π/4 x (D) ²
                                          10 = Load / π/4 x (10) ²

                        Young’s Modulus E = 200 KN/mm² = 200 x 10³ N/mm²
            Solution:
                        Volume of the bar, V = A x L
                         = 28.274 x 1000

     V = 28274 mm³


            Stress, σ = Load / Area = P/A = 4 x 10³ / 28.274                                                                                       

   σ = 141.472 N/mm²

Example for gradually applied load:
            When we lower a body with the help of a crane, the body first touches the platform on which it is to be placed. On further releasing the chain, the platform goes on loading till it is fully loaded by the body. This is the case of gradually applied load.
Example for suddenly applied load:
            When we lower a body with the help of a crane, the body is first of all, just above the platform on which it is to be placed. If the chain breaks at once at this moment the whole load of the body begins to act on the platform. This is the case of suddenly applied load.

as modulus of elasticity or young‘s modulus and is denoted by E.
40. State principal plane. (Apr’98)
            The planes which have no shear stress are known as principal planes. These planes carry only normal stresses.
41. Define Elasticity. (May 2012)
Elasticity is the tendency of solid materials to return to their original shape after being deformed. Solid objects will deform when forces are applied on them. If the material is elastic, the object will return to its initial shape and size when these forces are removed.
