3. For a given stress, the ratio of moment of resistance of a beam of square cross-section when placed with its two sides horizontal to the moment of resistance with its diagonal horizontal, is
8. Whenever some external system of forces acts on a body, it undergoes some deformation. As the body undergoes some deformation, it sets up some resistance to the deformation. This resistance per unit area to deformation, is called
Correct Answer: neither in tension nor in compression
10. A simply supported beam 'A' of length l, breadth b and depth d carries a central point load W. Another bream 'B' has the same length and breadth but its depth is doubled. The deflection of beam 'B' will be double as compared to beam 'A'.
