Hmm I'm not to sure if they are concerned with a worse case scenario, it'd make sense to me just to be safe side of things.

Homework Statement Hey, I'm struggling beyond belief with this assignment, one of the attached pdf's is the question and the variables given. What I'm struggling with most is what order I'm meant to do things in, I think I've got the start of it sussed but beyond that I'm clueless I've got...

I have been given this problem, I've simplified it down to a total resistance however I'm unsure on whether I have done it correctly. Any pointers would be nice, thanks. First of all I added the two resistors together in the top right as they are series. I then used that product with the...

So i have a stub axle shaft, I have determined maximum bending stress at several locations and the bending moments, my question is how do you calculate shear stress in a cantilevered beam? I assumed the shear would be longitudinal along the shaft. Thanks for any assistance given.

Thought so, so that means the bending moment diagram is triangular is it not?

I have the problem below, my question is what should the shear force diagram look like, I know its just a simple cantilever so does that mean the shear force diagram will be very rectangular looking?
