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
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.
13. Which of the mentioned below is the formula for total compressive stress?
a) A+B=C
b) (σc)t=σc+σb
c) τc=τa+τb
d) ρ=ω+σ
View Answer
Explanation: (σc)t=σc+σb is the formula for total compressive stress, always stress is represented by σ and shear stress is represented by τ. Hence, (σc)t=σc+σb is the right answer.
