A point in plane stress has the Mohr circle for strain shown in Figure (f). The modulus of elasticity of the material is E = 10,000 ksi and Poisson’s ratio is 0.25. The maximum shear strain is

7. 

A point in plane stress has the Mohr circle for strain shown in Figure (g). The modulus of elasticity of the material is E = 10,000 ksi and Poisson’s ratio is 0.25. The maximum shear strain is

8. 

A point in plane stress has the Mohr circle for strain shown in Figure (h). The modulus of elasticity of the material is E = 10,000 ksi and Poisson’s ratio is 0.25. The maximum shear strain is

9. 

In plane strain there are two principal strains, but in plane stress there are three principal strains.

10. 

The principal coordinate axis for stresses and strains is always the same, irrespective of the stress–strain relationship.
