0 0 votes A rigid horizontal rod of length $2L$ is fixed to a circular cylinder of radius $R$ as shown in the figure. Vertical forces of magnitude $P$ are applied at the two ends as shown in the figure. The shear modulus for the cylinder is $G$ and the Young’s modulus is $E$. The vertical deflection at point A is $PL^3/(\pi R^4G)$ $PL^3/(\pi R^4E)$ $2PL^3/(\pi R^4E)$ $4PL^3/(\pi R^4G)$ Applied Mechanics and Design gateme-2016-set2 applied-mechanics-and-design mechanics-of-materials stress-strain + – ♦Arjun 353 views answer comment Share Follow Add Sync Questions 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
