Problem 1. In a test on an aerosol can it was loaded to a gage pressure p = 69.0 psi. While pressurized, the can is also subjected to a tensile axial load N = 400 lb and a torque T = 250 in - lb. The can has 3.0 in diameter and wall thickness t = 0.006 in. The cross-sectional area of the wall (thin ring) is A = 2rt and the polar moment of inertia of the wall (thin ring) with respect to the centroid is J= 2r°t. The maximum shear stress Tr on the surface is t=- J N T T. X The blue point on the surface of the aerosol can has its sides parallel and perpendicular to the can's longitudinal axis (x). Determine magnitudes of normal and shear stresses acting on the blue point. Ox = OL = oy = OH =. Sketch the stresses with their correct senses on the enlarged view of the blue point below.
