A bar of cross-sectional area
is subjected to equal and opposite tensile forces at its ends. Consider a plane section (PS) of the bar, whose normal makes an angle with the axis (axis is along the length) of the bar.
Column-I | Column-II | ||
(I) | Shearing stress on PS | (P) | |
(II) | Tensile stress on PS | (Q) | |
(III) | The tensile stress is maximum for | (R) | |
(IV) | The shearing stress is maximum for | (S) | |
(T) |
Match the given columns and select the correct options from the codes given below.
