Question

For a rectangular section if the maximum
shear stress is 22.5 MPa then average
shear stress will be​

Answer 1

The correct answer is 16.875 MPa.

Given: Maximum shear stress is 22.5 MPa.

To Find: Average shear stress.

Solution:

As we know that

$\frac{Maximumshear stress}{Average shear stress} =\frac{4}{3}$

$\frac{22.5}{x}= \frac{4}{3}$

x = $\frac{22.5*3}{4}$

x = 16.875 MPa

Hence, average shear stress is 16.875 MPa.
