As shown in figure, a homogeneous 50-kg rigid block is suspended by the three springs whose lower ends were originally at the same level. Each steel spring has 24 turns of 10-mm-diameter on a mean diameter of 100 mm, and G = 83 GPa. The bronze spring has 48 turns of 20-mm-diameter wire on a mean diameter of 150 mm, and G=42 GPa. Compute the maximum shearing stress in each spring using approximate equation.

A horizontal aluminium rod 4.8 cm in diameter projects 5.3 cm from a wall. A 1200 kg object is suspended from the end of the rod. The shear modulus of aluminum is 3.0 x 1010 N/m2. Neglecting the rod's mass, find (a) the shear stress on the rod and (b) the vertical deflection of the end of the rod.
As indicated in Figure 4, a tensile stress is to be applied along the long axis (z-axis) of an aluminium rectangular bar. The width of each edge of the bar is w0 = 2.3 mm, and the length is l0 = 12 mm. The bar's modulus of elasticity and Poisson's ratio are respectively 69 GPa and 0.35. It is believed that the material is isotropic. a)Calculate the width of the bar, w when the load of 7000 N is applied.
Two solid bars support a load P as shown. Bar (1) has a cross-sectional area of A1 = 2700 mm2 and an allowable normal stress of 60 MPa.

A 1.25 m long cable has a diameter 3.50 mm with a Young’s Modulus, E, of 9.75 x 109 N/m2 . When the wire is placed under tension, it experiences a stress of 202.52 x 106 N/m2 , the length of the cable extends by 36.35 mm. Calculate the force that the cable experiences under tension and the strain energy density (U/V) due to deformation. Give your answers in newtons (N) to 2 decimal places for the force; and in joules per cubic metre (J/m3 ) for the strain energy density to 2 decimal places. Assume the cable is solid and the material is homogeneous.
