1 Calculate the shear force and bending moment for the beam subjected to the loads
as shown in the figure then draw the shear force diagram (SFD) and bending
moment diagram (BMD).
2 A composite bar of uniform cross-section area 200 mm2 consists of an aluminum
section rigidly fastened between a bronze section and a steel section as shown in
figure. Axial loads are applied at the positions indicated.
Determine: the Axial load P (kN) to make it in equilibrium, Stress in each section
and the total change in length of the bar.
3 The forces 20 N, 30 N, 40 N, 50 N and 60 N are acting at one of the angular points
of a regular hexagon, towards the other five angular points, taken in order. Find
the magnitude and direction of the resultant force.
4. What is refrigeration effect? 1.5 kW per tonne of refrigeration is required to
maintain the temperature of -40°C in the refrigerator. If the refrigeration cycle
works on Carnot cycle, determine the followings: 1. COP of the cycle, 2.
Temperature of the sink, 3. Heat rejected to the sink per tonne of refrigeration, 4.
Heat supplied and COP, if the cycle if used as a heat pump.
5. Define Poisson's ratio and bulk modulus. The following data relate to a bar
subjected to
a tensile test:
Diameter of the bar = 30mm
Tensile load = 54kN
Gauge length = 300mm
Extension of the bar= 0.112mm
Change in diameter =0.00366mm
Calculate Poisson’s ratio, modulus of elasticity, modulus of rigidity and bulk
modulus.
6. Draw SFD and BMD of the cantilever beam loaded as shown in fig.
7. Find the kinematic viscosity of a liquid in stokes whose specific gravity is 0.95
and dynamic viscosity is 0.012 poise.
