For the elements shown in given Problem, use Mohr's circle to determine
(a) the principal stresses and the orientation of the principal planes
(b) the maximum shear stress
Problem
Stresses developed at a point in a machine part are shown acting on infinitesimal elements. For each element, calculate
(a) the normal and shear stress intensities on a plane, the normal of which is inclined at an angle of 60° counterclockwise from the X-X axis
(b) the principal stresses and the orientation of the principal planes
(c) the maximum shear stress.
