A bolt is made to pass through a tube and both of them are tightly fitted with the help of washers and nuts. If the nut is tightened, then

A body is subjected to a tensile stress of 1200 MPa on one plane and another tensile stress of 600 MPa on a plane at right angles to the former. It is also subjected to a shear stress of 400 MPa on the same planes. The minimum normal stress will be

The given figure shows the Mohr's circle of stress for two unequal and like principal stresses (σx and σy) acting at a body across two mutually perpendicular planes. The resultant stress is given by

When one plate overlaps the other and the two plates are riveted together with two rows of rivets, the joint is known as

When a beam is subjected to a bending moment, the strain in a layer is __________ the distance from the neutral axis.

The thermal or temperature stress is a function of
