Question

The resultant cuts the base of the circular column of diameter d with an eccentricity equal to d/4. The ratio between the maximum compressive stress and the maximum tensile stress is

Answer 1

$\mathfrak{The\:Answer\:is}$

Ratio between the maximum compressive stress and the maximum tensile stress

= d/d/4

= 4/1

= 4:1

Answer 2

The ratio between the maximum compressive stress and the maximum tensile stress is 4:1

Explanation:

• The decreasing volume of a certain material causes the compressive stress while the tensile stress of a material causes by the increase in the length of the material.
• Then the ratio between the two stresses as given in the question would be, The ratio between the diameter is given as d and the eccentricity given as d/4. hence when we write this in ratio form.

It will be equal to,

                              $\frac{d}{\frac{d}{4}}$⇒  $\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4}}$

                                                ⇒ $\frac{4}{1}$

Hence, the ratio between compressive and tensile stress will be equal to 4:1.
