1. A tensile test was conducted on a mild steel bar. The following data was obtained from the test:
(i) Diameter of the steel bar = 3 cm
(ii) Gauge length of the bar = 20cm
(iii) Load at elastic limit = 250 kN
(iv) Extension at a load of 150 kN = 0.21 mm
(v) Maximum load = 380 kN
(vi) Total extension = 60 mm
(vii) Diameter of rod at failure = 2.25 cm
Determine:
(1) The Young’s modulus
(2) The stress at elastic limit
(3) The percentage of elongation
(4) The percentage decrease in area.
2. Three bars made of copper; zinc and aluminium are of equal length and have cross section 500, 700, and 1000 sq.mm respectively. They are rigidly connected at their ends. If this compound member is subjected to a longitudinal pull of 250 kN, estimate the proportional of the load carried on each rod and the induced stresses. Take the value of E for copper = 1.3×10 5 N/mm2, for zinc = 1×105 N/mm2 and for aluminium = 0.8×105 N/mm2.
3. A bar 0.3m long is 50mm square in section for 120mm of its length, 25mm diameter for 80mm and of 40mm diameter for its remaining length. If the tensile force of 100kN is applied to the bar calculate the maximum and minimum stresses produced in it, and the total elongation. Take E = 2×105 N/mm2 and assume uniform distribution of stress over the cross section.
4. A bar of 25mm diameter is subjected to a pull of 40kN. The measured extension on gauge length of 200mm is 0.085mm and the change in diameter is 0.003mm.Calculate the value of Poisson’s ratio and the three moduli.
5. A cylindrical vessel, whose ends are closed by means of rigid flange plates, is made up of steel plate 3 mm thick. The length and internal diameter of the vessel are 50 cm and 25 cm respectively. Determine the longitudinal and hoop stresses in the cylindrical shell due to an internal fluid pressure of 3 N/mm2. Also calculate the increase in length, diameter and volume of vessel. Take E = 2×105 N/mm2 and µ =0.3.
6. A hollow cylinder 2 m long has an outside diameter of 50 mm and inside diameter of 30 mm. If the cylinder is carrying a load of 25 kN, find the stress in the cylinder. Also find the deformation of the cylinder, if the value of modulus of elasticity for the cylinder material is 100 GPa.
7. A cylindrical shell of 500 mm diameter is required to withstand an internal pressure of 4 MPa. Find the minimum thickness of the shell, if maximum tensile strength for the plate material is 400 MPa and efficiency of the joints is 65%. Take factor of safety as 5.
8. A cylindrical shell 3m long which is closed at its ends has an internal diameter of 1m and a wall thickness of 15mm. calculate the circumferential and longitudinal stresses induced and also change in dimensions of the shell if it is subjected to an internal pressure of 1.5 MN/m2

12. Two vertical rods one of steel and other of copper are rigidly fixed at the top and 80cm apart. Diameter and length of each rod are 3cm and 3.5m respectively. A cross bar fixed to the rods at lower ends carries a load of 6kN such that the cross bar remains horizontal even after loading. Find the stress in each rod and position of load on the bar. Take E for steel as 2×105 N/mm2 and for copper as 1×105 N/mm2
