1. A hollow steel tube with an inside diameter of 100 mm must carry a tensile load of 400 kN.
Determine the outside diameter of the tube if the stress is limited to 120 MN/m2.

where:
P=400kN=400000NP=400kN=400000N
σ=120MPaσ=120MPa
A=14πD2−14π(1002)A=14πD2−14π(1002)
A=14π(D2−10000)A=14π(D2−10000)

Thus,
400000=120[14π(D2−10000)]400000=120[14π(D2−10000)]
400000=30πD2−300000π400000=30πD2−300000π
D2=400000+300000π30πD2=400000+300000π30π
D=119.35 mmD=119.35 mm
2. A homogeneous 800 kg bar AB is supported at either end by a cable as shown in Fig. P-105.
Calculate the smallest area of each cable if the stress is not to exceed 90 MPa in bronze and 120
MPa in steel.

3. The homogeneous bar shown in Fig. P-106 is supported by a smooth pin at C and a cable that
runs from A to B around the smooth peg at D. Find the stress in the cable if its diameter is 0.6
inch and the bar weighs 6000 lb.

4. A rod is composed of an aluminum section rigidly attached between steel and bronze sections,
as shown in Fig. P-107. Axial loads are applied at the positions indicated. If P = 3000 lb and the
cross sectional area of the rod is 0.5 in2, determine the stress in each section.

5. An aluminum rod is rigidly attached between a steel rod and a bronze rod as shown in
Fig. P-108. Axial loads are applied at the positions indicated. Find the maximum value of
P that will not exceed a stress in steel of 140 MPa, in aluminum of 90 MPa, or in bronze
of 100 MPa.

For bronze:
σbrAbr=2PσbrAbr=2P
100(200)=2P100(200)=2P
P=10000NP=10000N

For aluminum:
