Consider a solid circular shaft of length $ l $ and radius $ R $, subjected to a torque $ T $ producing a twist in the length of the shaft. Calculate strain energy in torsion.

Q9.2

A $ 1 \text{ m} $ long beam rectangular in section $ 30 \text{ mm} $ wide and $ 40 \text{ mm} $ deep is supported on rigid supports at its ends. If it is struck at the centre by a $ 12 \text{ kg} $ mass falling through a height of $ 60 \text{ mm} $ find: (i) The instantaneous stress developed and (ii) The instantaneous strain energy stored in the beam. Take $ E = 200 \text{ GN/m}^2 $.
