For a panel of \( 2 \) mm thickness and \( 150 \) mm length with a stress ratio of \( 0.5 \), the boom area contributed at the higher-stressed end is

  • A.150 mm^2
  • B.100 mm^2
  • C.75 mm^2
  • D.125 mm^2

Answer: D

Correct answer: 125 mm²

The boom area contributed by a panel at its higher-stressed end is

\[ B = \frac{t_D b}{6}\left(2 + \frac{\sigma_2}{\sigma_1}\right) = \frac{2 \times 150}{6}(2 + 0.5) = 50 \times 2.5 = 125 \ \mathrm{mm}^2 \]

The bracket runs from 1 when the far end carries the opposite stress, through 2 when it carries none, to 3 when the stress is uniform - so the panel contributes most where the stress does not vary along it.
