Prove that the Poisson's ratio cannot be greater than 0.50.

A bar of 20 mm diameter is subjected to a pull of 50 kN. The measured extension over a gauge length of 20 cm is 0·1 mm and the change in diameter is 0.0035 mm. Calculate the Poisson's ratio and value of the modulus of elasticity E and bulk modulus k.

A cylindrical shell 90 cm long, 15 cm internal diameter, having thickness 8mm is filled with a fluid at atmospheric pressure. If an additional 20 cm^3 of fluid is pumped into the cylinder, find

A hollow shaft of diameter ratio 3/5 is required to transmit a power of 800 kW at 110 rpm. Maximum shear stress is not to exceed 63 MPa and twist in a length of3 m is not to exceed 1·4 degrees. Calculate the minimum outer diameter of the shaft.

A steel specimen of 1·5 cm^2 cross-sectional area stretches 0·005 em over a 5 cm gauge length under an axial load of 30 kN. Calculate the strain energy stored in the specimen at this point. If the load at elastic limit is, 50 kN, calculate the elongation at elastic limit and the proof resilience.

Explain the assumptions made in Euler's theory of Buckling of columns.

Derive the formula for slope and deflection of a simply supported beam carrying central point load using Moment area method.

A steel ring of 20 cm mean diameter has a rectangular cross-section 5 cm in the radial direction and 3 cm perpendicular to the radial direction. If the maximum tensile stress is limited to 120 MPa, determine the tensile load that the ring can carry.

Stresses at a point on a specimen are 20 MPa, 10 MPa, 'txy 25 MPa.
