A point load applied at shear center induces
A beam has the same section throughout its length with moment of inertia \(I = 1 \times 10^8 \, \text{mm}^4\). It is subjected to a uniform BM = 40 kN·m, \(E = 2 \times 10^5 \, \text{N/mm}^2\). What is the radius of curvature of the circle into which the beam will bend in the form of an arc of a circle?
The Penman’s evapotranspiration equation is based on
The reduction in project time normally results in
A beam of triangular cross-section is subjected to a shear force of 50kN. The base width of the section is 250 mm and the height is 200 mm. The beam is placed with its base horizontal. The shear stress at the neutral axis will be nearly-

As per Indian standard specifications, the length of one link in 30 meter chain is:
What is the volume of a 6 m deep tank having rectangular shaped top 6 m $\times$ 4 m and bottom 4 m $\times$ 2 m? (use mean-area method)
The length of the survey line was measured with a 30 m tape and was found to be 1000 m. As a check, the length was again measured with another 20 m tape, and was found to be 1010 m. On comparing the 30 m tape with a test gauge, it was found to be 0.10 m too long. Find the actual length of the 20 m chain.
