Define longitudinal strain and shearing (tangential) stress and write their formulas. What is the magnitude of hydraulic stress?

  • A
    Longitudinal strain = $\Delta L / L$,Shearing stress = $F/A$,Hydraulic stress = $F/A$
  • B
    Longitudinal strain = $L / \Delta L$,Shearing stress = $A/F$,Hydraulic stress = $P$
  • C
    Longitudinal strain = $\Delta L / L$,Shearing stress = $F_{tangential}/A$,Hydraulic stress = $P = F/A$
  • D
    Longitudinal strain = $\Delta L / L$,Shearing stress = $F/A$,Hydraulic stress = $0$

Anvils made of single crystals of diamond,with the shape as shown in the figure,are used to investigate the behavior of materials under very high pressures. The flat faces at the narrow end of the anvil have a diameter of $0.50 \; mm$,and the wide ends are subjected to a compressional force of $50,000 \; N$. What is the pressure at the tip of the anvil?

$A$ lift is tied with thick iron ropes having mass $M$. The maximum acceleration of the lift is $a \ m/s^2$ and the maximum safe stress is $s \ N/m^2$. The minimum diameter of the rope is $(g = \text{acceleration due to gravity})$
