- Repeat Problem 2.3-4, but now include the weight of the bar. Sec Table 1.1 in Appendix I for the weight density of steel.arrow_forwardA steel riser pipe hangs from a drill rig located offshore in deep water (see figure). (a) What is the greatest length (meters) it can have without breaking if the pipe is suspended in the air and the ultimate strength (or breaking strength) is 550 MPa? (b) If the same riser pipe hangs from a drill rig at sea, what is the greatest length? (Obtain the weight densities of steel and sea water from Table M, Appendix I. Neglect the effect of buoyant foam casings on the pipe.)arrow_forwardRepeat Problem 2.3-18, but assume that the bar is made of aluminum alloy. If P2= 200 kN, what is P1so that displacementarrow_forward
- Repeat Problem 11.3-9. Use two C 150 × 12.2 steel shapes and assume that E = 205 GPa and L = 6 m.arrow_forwardA long, slender bar in the shape of a right circular cone with length L and base diameter d hangs vertically under the action of its own weight (see figure). The weight of the cone is W and the modulus of elasticity of the material is E. Derive a formula for the increase S in the length of the bar due to its own weight. (Assume that the angle of taper of the cone is small.)arrow_forwardCompare the angle of twist 1 for a thin-walled circular tube (see figure) calculated from the approximate theory for thin-walled bars with the angle of twist 2 calculated from the exact theory of torsion for circular bars, Express the ratio 12terms of the non-dimensional ratio ß = r/t. Calculate the ratio of angles of twist for ß = 5, 10, and 20. What conclusion about the accuracy of the approximate theory do you draw from these results?arrow_forward
- A steel post (E=30×106) having thickness t = 1/8 in. and height L = 72 in. support a stop sign (see figure), where s = 12.5 in. The height of the post L is measured from the base to the centroid of the sign. The stop sign is subjected to wind pressure p = 20 lb/ft2 normal to its surface. Assume that the post is fixed at its base. What is the resultant load on the sign? (Sec Appendix E, Case 25, for properties of an octagon, n =8.) What is the maximum bending stress in the post? Repeat part (b) if the circular cut-outs arc eliminated over the height of the post.arrow_forwardA bar ABC revolves in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis at the midpoint C (see figure). The bar, which has a length 2L and crass-sectional area A, revolves at constant angular speed at. Each half of the bar (AC and BC) has a weight W, and supports a weight W2at its end. Derive the following formula for the elongation of one-half of the bar (that is. the elongation of either AC ar BC). =L223gEA(w1+3w2) in which E is t he modulus of elasticity of the material of the bar and g is the acceleration of gravity.arrow_forwardA thin metal strip of total weight W and length L is placed across the top of a flat table of width L2as shown in the figure.
