1. A simply supported beam carries a varying load from zero at one end and w at the other end. If the length of the beam is a, the shear force will be zero at a distance x from least loaded point where x is
Correct Answer: one end is fixed and other end is free
4. A steel rod of sectional area 250 sq. mm connects two parallel walls 5 m apart. The nuts at the ends were tightened when the rod was heated to 100°C. If ?steel = 0.000012/C°, Esteel = 0.2 MN/mm2, the tensile force developed at a temperature of 50°C, is
5. A steel bar 5 m x 50 mm is loaded with 250, 000 N. If the modulus of elasticity of the material is 0.2 MN/mm2 and Poisson's ratio is 0.25, the change in the volume of the bar is :
7. A square column carries a load P at the centroid of one of the quarters of the square. If a is the side of the main square, the combined bending stress will be
