Strength of Materials-Ii

The document is an exam for a Strength of Materials course. It contains two parts - Part A with short answer questions defining key terms like principal stress and planes, strength of a shaft, types of columns, slenderness ratio, and shear centre. Part B contains longer form questions involving calculations and explanations, including deriving that the sum of normal stresses on perpendicular planes is constant, writing about Mohr's circle of stress, calculating shear stress in a circular shaft under torsion, explaining assumptions in Euler's column theory, proving stresses from an eccentric load, calculating stresses in a cantilever beam, and using the method of joints to solve for forces in a plane truss.

STRENGTH OF MATERIALS-II
(Civil Engineering)
Time: 3 hours Max. Marks: 70
Note: 1. Question Paper consists of two parts (Part-A and Part-B)
2. Answer ALL the question in Part-A
3. Answer any FOUR Questions from Part-B
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PART –A

1 a) Define (i) principle stress and (ii) principal planes. Explain their uses.
b) What do you meant by strength of a shaft?
c) What are the classifications of columns?
d) Define slenderness ratio
e) Define shear centre. What is the importance of shear centre?
f) Write the types of trusses?

PART-B
2 a) Show that in a strained material subjected to the two- dimensional stress, the sum of
the normal components of the stresses on any two mutually perpendicular planes is
constant.
b) Write short note on Mohr’s Circle of stress.

3 a) When a circular shaft is subjected to torsion, show that the shear stress varies linearly
from the axis to the surface?
b) In torsion, a hollow circular shaft is preferred to a solid circular shaft. Justify the
statement.
4 a) Explain the assumptions made in the Euler’s column theory. How far are the
assumptions valid in practice?
b) Define the slenderness ratio. State the limitations of the Euler’s formula.

5 Prove that an eccentric load causes a direct stress as well as bending stress.

6 a) A cantilever of length 1m carries a point load of 2000 N at the free-end. The cross-
section of the cantilever is an unequal angle of dimensions 100mm by 60 mm and
10mm thick. The small leg of the angle (i.e., 60 mm) is horizontal. The load passes
through the centroid of the cross-section. Determine:
(i)Position of neutral axis and
(ii) The magnitude of maximum stress up, at the fixed section of the cantilever.
b) How will you find the resultant stress in unsymmetrical bending?

7 Using the method of joints determine the forces in all the members of pin jointed plane
truss shown in below figure
