Answer is:

a) watermelon being run over by a steamroller is a shear stress.

b) a person diving into the deep end of a swimming pool is a confining pressure.

C) playing a game of tug- of-war is a tensional stress.

d) Kneading bread dough is a compressional stress

e) slipping on banana peel is shear stress.

The explanation:

a) when  the shear stress is that force which affect on the body by slippage on a plane of the body , and here, the ground is the plane and the watermelon is pushed by slippage on the ground by steamroller .

b) when the confining pressure is the pressure which caused by the effect of the weight overburden the body, and here the water in the pool is the weight that is overburden the body of the diving person which cause the confining pressure.

c) when the tensional stress is the force which is resulted from the pull body a part which perpendicular to the surface of the body, and here, playing a game of tug-of-war is represent a force of pull the rope apart so it is a tensional stress.

d) when the compressional stress is like squeezing surface of a body when the force is perpendicular to the body surface. and here Kneading bread dough is represent squeezing the bread dough  so, it  represent a compressional stress.

e) when  the shear stress is that force which affect on the body by slippage on a plane of the body , and here, the slipping on a banana peel is a shear stress as the slipping force on the banana represents the shear stress .

Answer for first picture:

#1 = 43 degrees #2= 38 degrees

#3= 27 degrees #4= 45 degrees

Explanation for first picture:

All the angles are right angles. This means they all will equal 90 degrees! so if you take 90 degrees and subtract the one known angle you will have your answer! :)

Answer for 2nd picture:

#1 = X= 70 Y= 110

#2 = X= 102 Z= 102

#3 = X= 83 Y= 194

#4 = Y= 37 Z= 143

Explanation for second picture:

When you have angles like these the total will equal 360 degrees! look at the first pic, it shows 110 degrees, you also know that the angle across of it is equal to it. so together it equals 220 now subtract 360 - 220. you get 140. since you have two angles to figure out, you divide 140 into two. 140 / 2 = 70 degrees! you do the same steps for the rest of the problems!

( i am sorry for the bad explaining!)
