a cantilever beam 1.5m long has a square box cross section with the outer width and height being 100mm and a wall thickness of 8mm. the beam carries a uniform load of 6.5kN/m along the entire length and, in the same direction, a concentrated force of 4kN at the free end. (a) determine the max bending stress (b) determine the max transervse shear stress (c) determine the max shear stress in the beam

a) 159.07 MPa

b) 10.45 MPa

c) 79.535 MPa

Explanation:

Given data :

length of cantilever beam = 1.5m

outer width and height = 100 mm

wall thickness = 8mm

uniform load carried by beam  along entire length= 6.5 kN/m

concentrated force at free end = 4kN

first we  determine these values :

Mmax = ( 6.5 *(1.5) * (1.5/2) + 4 * 1.5 ) = 13312.5 N.m

Vmax = ( 6.5 * (1.5) + 4 ) = 13750 N

A) determine max bending stress

б =  =    =  159.07 MPa

B) Determine max transverse shear stress

attached below

   ζ = 10.45 MPa

C) Determine max shear stress in the beam

This occurs at the top of the beam or at the centroidal axis

hence max stress in the beam =  159.07 / 2 = 79.535 MPa  

attached below is the remaining solution

answer:

understeer generally occurs when the front tyres start slipping while you go around the curve.

explanation:

hope it !
