86.6MPa and 71.6MPa
sir i want solution
immediately
To calculate the maximum direct stress and maximum shear stress in the material, we need to consider the normal and shear stresses separately.
1. Maximum Direct Stress:
The maximum direct stress occurs when the normal stress is at its highest magnitude. In this case, we have a tension stress of 80 MPa and a compression stress of 50 MPa. The magnitude of the direct stress is equal to the absolute value of the normal stress with the highest magnitude. Thus, the maximum direct stress is 80 MPa.
2. Maximum Shear Stress:
The maximum shear stress occurs when the shear stress is at its highest magnitude. In this case, we have a shear stress of 30 MPa. The magnitude of the shear stress can be calculated using the formula:
Maximum Shear Stress = 0.5 * (Tension stress - Compression stress) = 0.5 * (80 MPa - (-50 MPa)) = 0.5 * (80 MPa + 50 MPa) = 65 MPa.
Therefore, the maximum direct stress is 80 MPa and the maximum shear stress is 65 MPa.
It's worth noting that the given answer (86.6 MPa, 71.6 MPa) differs slightly from the calculated values. This could be due to rounding differences or a slightly different calculation method used in the given answer.
