5. A spring of mean radius 40 mm contains 8 action coils of steel (N80000 N/mm2), 4 mm in diameter. The clearance between the coils being 1 mm when unloaded, the minimum compressive load to remove the clearance, is --
6. For determining the force in the member AB of the truss shown in the given figure by method of sections, the section is made to pass through AB, AD and ED and the moments are taken about
9. A masonry dam (density = 20,000 N/m3) 6 m high, one metre wide at the top and 4 m wide at the base, has vertical water face. The minimum stress at the base of the dam when the reservoir is full, will be --
11. If a concrete column 200 x 200 mm in cross- section is reinforced with four steel bars of 1200 mm2 total cross-sectional area. Calculate the safe load for the column if permissible stress in concrete is 5 N/mm2 and Es is 15 Ec
12. A bar L metre long and having its area of cross- section A, is subjected to a gradually applied tensile load W. The strain energy stored in the bar is --
13. An isolated load W is acting at a distance a from the left hand support, of a three hinged arch of span 21 and rise h hinged at the crown, the horizontal reaction at the support, is--
19. The maximum deflection due to a uniformly distributed load w/unit length over entire span of a cantilever of length 1 and of flexural rigidly EI, is --
