Question

The hollow drill pipe for an oil well (see figure)
is 6.2 in. in outer diameter and 0.75 in. in thickness.
Just above the bit, the compressive force in the
pipe (due to the weight of the pipe) is 62 kips and the
torque (due to drilling) is 185 kip-in.
Determine the maximum tensile, compressive,
and shear stresses in the drill pipe.
