12. Which are the two stresses that act inside crankshaft?
a) Shear and bending stress
b) Compressive and bending stress
c) Tensile and compressive stress
d) Compressive and shear stress
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Compressive and bending stress are the two stresses that act inside crankshaft and two resist these two stresses a reactive force R1 and R2 are produced.
