Answer:
The stress is [tex]\sigma = 1.218*10^{6} \ N/m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The diameter of the post is [tex]d = 29 \ cm = 0.29 \ m[/tex]
The length is [tex]L = 2.0 \ m[/tex]
The weight of the loading mass
Generally the radius of the post is mathematically represented as
[tex]r = \frac{0.29}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]r = 0.145 \ m[/tex]
Generally the area of the post is
[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]
=> [tex]A = 3.14 * 0.145 ^2[/tex]
=> [tex]A = 0.066 \ m^2[/tex]
Generally the weight exerted by the load is mathematically represented as
[tex]F = m * g[/tex]
=> [tex]F = 8200 * 9.8[/tex]
=> [tex]F = 80360 \ N[/tex]
Generally the stress is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sigma = \frac{F}{A}[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma = \frac{80360 }{0.066}[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma = 1.218*10^{6} \ N/m^2[/tex]
