1. At point P the stress tensor is σ ij = ⎢⎢ 0 3 0 ⎥⎥
⎢⎣− 2 0 5 ⎥⎦
Determine the stress vector on the plane at P parallel to plane (a) BGE and (b) BGFC of the
small parallelepiped as shown.
2. Let the angles between primed and unprimed coordinate directions be given by the table
shown
X1 X2 X3
X1/ 45o 90o 45o
X2/ 60o 45o 120o
X3/ 120o 45o 60o
4. The magnitudes and directions of the stresses on two planes intersecting at a point are as
shown in figure P4. Determine the directions and magnitudes of the principal stresses at this
point. Sketch the results on an element.

5. At a point A on an unloaded edge of an elastic body, oriented as shown in the figure P5 with
respect to the xy axes, the maximum shearing stress is 500 psi. (a) Find the principal stresses,
and (b) determine the state of stress on an element oriented with its edge parallel to the xy
axes. Show the results on a sketch of the element at A. Use Mohr’s Circle approach.
7. Employ Mohr’s circle to find the normal and shearing stresses on an oblique plane defined
by θ = 30o, φ = 60o (see figure). The principal stresses are σ1 = 5000 psi, σ2 = -2000 psi and
σ3 = -4000 psi.
