A capped cast-iron pipe is compressed by a brass rod, as shown. The mil is turned until it is just snug, then add an additional quarter turn to pre-compress the cast-iron pipe. The pitch of the threads of the bolt ap = 52 mils (a mil is one-thousandth of an inch). Use the numerical properties provided.
(a) What stresses a and arwill be produced in the cast-iron pipe and brass rod. respectively, by the additional quarter turn of the nut?
(b) Find the bearing stress ahbeneath the washer and the shear stress t(in the steel cap.
