Answer:
Shearing stresses are the stresses generated in any material when a force acts in such a way that it tends to tear off the material.
Generally the above definition is valid at an armature level, in more technical terms shearing stresses are the component of the stresses that act parallel to any plane in a material that is under stress. Shearing stresses are present in a body even if normal forces act on it along the centroidal axis.
Mathematically in a plane AB the shearing stresses are given by

Yes the shearing force which generates the shearing stresses is similar to frictional force that acts between the 2 surfaces in contact with each other.
Answer:
- Moisture/ water content w = 26%
Explanation:
- Initial mass of saturated soil w1 = mass of soil - weight of container
= 113.27 g - 49.31 g = 63.96 g
- Final mass of soil after oven w2 = mass of soil - weight of container
= 100.06 g - 49.31 g = 50.75
Moisture /water content, w =
=
= 0.26 = 26%
Void ratio = water content X specific gravity of solid
= 0.26 X 2.80 =0.728
Explanation:
The end-use industries of thermochromic materials include packaging, printing & coating, medical, textile, industrial, and others. Printing & coating is the fastest-growing end-use industry of thermochromic materials owing to a significant increase in the demand for thermal paper for POS systems. The use of thermochromic materials is gaining momentum for interactive packaging that encourages consumers to take a product off the shelf and use it.
