Strength of Materials - Engineering

Q1:

In a simple bending theory, one of the assumption is that the plane sections before bending remain plane after bending. This assumption means that

A stress is uniform throughout the beam

B strain is uniform throughout the beam

C stress is proportional to the distance from the neutral axis

D strain is proportional to the distance from the neutral axis

ANS:D - strain is proportional to the distance from the neutral axis
