The change in length due to a tensile or compressive force acting on a body is given by (where P = Tensile or compressive force acting on the body, $$l$$ = Original length of the body, A = Cross-sectional area of the body and E = Young's modulus for the material of the body)
A body of weight w placed on an inclined plane is acted upon by a force P parallel to the plane which causes the body just to move up the plane. If the angle of inclination of the plane is $$\theta $$ and angle of friction is $$\varphi $$, the minimum value of P, is
A rigid body is rotating about an axis. One force F1 acts on the body such that its vector passes through the axis of rotation. Another force F2 acts on it such that it is perpendicular to the axis of rotation and at a point 5cm from the axis. This force F2 is perpendicular to the radius vector at its point of application. Find the net torque on the body. Let F1 = 10N & F2= 5N.
A line of 12 cm length is perpendicular to profile plane and the least distance from this line to profile plane is 6 cm. This is at a distance of 4 cm from the vertical plane and 5 cm from the horizontal plane. What is distance from the point on line far away from the profile plane to profile plane?

Three forces acting on a rigid body are represented in magnitude, direction and line of action by the three sides of a triangle taken in order. The forces are equivalent to a couple whose moment is equal to
If a body is subjected to stresses in xy plane with stresses of 60N/mm² and 80N/mm² acting along x and y axes respectively. Also the shear stress acting is 10N/mm². Find the inclination of the plane in which shear stress is maximal.
If a body is lying on a plane whose inclination with the horizontal is less than the angle of friction, then
i. a force is required to move the body upwards
ii. a force is required to move the body downward
iii. the body will not be in equilibrium
The correct answer is
If a body is subjected to stresses in xy plane with stresses of 60N/mm² and 80N/mm² acting along x and y axes respectively. Also the shear stress acting is 20N/mm²Find the maximum amount of shear stress to which the body is subjected.
