Question

A prismatic bar 𝑷𝑸𝑹𝑺𝑻 is subjected to axial loads as shown in the figure. The segments having maximum and minimum axial stresses, respectively, are

Options :

  1. QR and PQ

  2. ST and PQ

  3. QR and RS

  4. ST and RS

Show Answer

Answer :

QR and RS

Solution :

The correct option is C ST and RS
Axial Loading Diagram

Pmax = PST = 25 kN

Pmin = PRS = 5 kN

Hence, maximum and minimum axial stresses are in ST and RS portions because of prismatic bar.

Hence the answer is (c)
