Expert Solution
Step 1

Objective: To determine the maximum stress at point A.

 

Given:

Maximum ground reaction force (F) = 875 N

Inner diameter of the tube (d) = 20 mm

Outer diameter of the tube (D) = 24 mm

Distance of the line of action of the ground reaction force from the socket center (e) = 1.5 cm

 

The stresses acting at point A can be broken down as:

(1) Direct axial compression

(2) Indirect bending compression and tension

 

The maximum stress at A will be the result of the direct axial compression and the indirect bending compression.
