Define shearing stress and write its formula.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The ratio of tangential component of force to the cross section to the area of cross section is known as shearing stress,
`sigma _(t) = (F_(b))/(A’)`
where,
`F_(t) =` tangential component of force to the cross section area.
A = Area of cross sectional.
