In a leaf spring, the length of all the leaves are equal.

A beam supported on more than two supports is called

The compression test is carried on __________ materials.

When a material is loaded within elastic limit, the material will regain its shape and size when the load is removed.

The bending stress in a beam is __________ bending moment

The bending stress in a beam is __________ bending moment

The tensile strength of ductile materials is __________ its compressive strength.

The maximum shear stress developed in a beam of circular section is __________ the average shear stress.

When a body is subjected to a direct tensile stress (σ) in one plane, then maximum normal stress occurs at a section inclined at __________ to the normal of the section.

A rectangular beam of length l supported at its two ends carries a central point load W. The maximum deflection occurs

Shear modulus is the ratio of

A thick pressure vessel is always used for the generation of steam, as it can withstand high pressures.

When there is a sudden increase or decrease in shear force diagram between any two points, it indicates that there is a

The bending moment at the ends of a simply supported beam will be zero.

The bending moment on a section is maximum where shear force is

In spring balances, the spring is used

When a bar is subjected to a change of temperature and its deformation is prevented, the stress induced in the bar is
