Mechanical Engineering > GATE 2022 SET-2 > Stress Analysis
A structural member under loading has a uniform state of plane stress which in usual notations is given by σx = 3P, σy = -2P and τxy = √2 P, where P > 0. The yield strength of the material is 350 MPa. If the member is designed using the maximum distortion energy theory, then the value of P at which yielding starts (according to the maximum distortion energy theory) is
A
70 MPa
B
90 MPa
C
120 MPa
D
75 MPa

Explanation

Correct : c
