1. The homogeneous 8000-lb bar is supported by a pin at C and a cable that
runs from A to B around the frictionless pulley at D. Find the stress in the
cable if its diameter is 0.8 in.
5. The following data were obtained during a tension test of an aluminium alloy.
The initial diameter of the test specimen was 0.505 in., and the gage length
was 2.0 in.
9. The torque of 100 kip•ft produces a maximum shear stress of 8000 psi in the
16-ft-long hollow steel shaft. Note that the inner diameter of the shaft is two-
thirds of its outer diameter D. Determine the shaft’s outer diameter D. Use G
= 12 × 10^6 psi for steel.
