Shear Stress in Cotter given Cotter Thickness and Width Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Shear Stress in Cotter = (Load on Cotter Joint)/(2*Thickness of Cotter*Mean Width of Cotter)
τ_co = (L)/(2*t_c*b)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Shear Stress in Cotter - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear Stress in Cotter is the amount of stress (cause deformation by slippage along a plane parallel to the imposed stress) generated into the cotter due to the shear force acting on it.
Load on Cotter Joint - (Measured in Newton) - Load on cotter joint is basically the amount of load/force any part or joint, can bear or is acted upon or exerts.
Thickness of Cotter - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Cotter is the measure of how much broad is the cotter in direction perpendicular to axial force.
Mean Width of Cotter - (Measured in Meter) - The mean Width of Cotter is defined as the average width of the cotter of a cotter joint.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load on Cotter Joint: 50000 Newton --> 50000 Newton No Conversion Required
Thickness of Cotter: 21.478 Millimeter --> 0.021478 Meter (Check conversion here)
Mean Width of Cotter: 48.5 Millimeter --> 0.0485 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

τ_co = (L)/(2*t_c*b) --> (50000)/(2*0.021478*0.0485)

Evaluating ... ...

τ_co = 23999623.6859006

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

23999623.6859006 Pascal -->23.9996236859006 Newton per Square Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

23.9996236859006 ≈ 23.99962 Newton per Square Millimeter <-- Shear Stress in Cotter
