Strength Of Materials Miscellaneous
Direction: A cylindrical container of radius R = 1 m, wall thickness 1 mm is filled with water up to a depth of 2 m and suspended along its upper rim. The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 and acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s2. The self-weight of the cylinder is negligible. The formula for hoop stress in a thin-walled cylinder can be used at all points along the height of the cylindrical container.
- The axial and circumferential stress (σa, σc) experienced by the cylinder wall at mid-depth (m as shown) are

Pressure at mid – depth = ρgh = 103 × 10 × 1 = 104 N/m2
∴ σa = pd + 104 × 2 4t 4 × 10-3

We know E = 2G[1 + v]
E/G = 2[1 + v].
18. Here, Px = Px = Px = – 15 × 106 Pa
(compression)Now, ex Px = Py = Pz = 3 × 10-5 T2 2π π
where, m = Poisson’s ratio
ex = ey = ez = 3 × 10-5
ex + ey + ez = 9 × 10-5
∴ Change in volume = Total strain × Original = 90 m3Correct Option: A
