How much of the mercury in the US environment is from Asia? a. 10%
b. 30%
c. 50%
d.70%

1.933 KN-M

Explanation:

Determine the largest permissible bending moment when the composite bar is bent  horizontally

Given data :

modulus of elasticity of steel = 200 GPa

modulus of elasticity of aluminum = 75 GPa

Allowable stress for steel = 220 MPa

Allowable stress for Aluminum = 100 MPa

a = 10 mm

First step

determine moment of resistance when steel reaches its max permissible stress

next : determine moment of resistance when Aluminum reaches its max permissible stress

Finally Largest permissible bending moment of the composite Bar = 1.933 KN-M
