Define Shear Stress
hear stress, often denoted by τ (Greek: tau), is the component of stress coplanar with a material cross section. It arises from the shear force, the component of force vector parallel to the material cross section. Normal stress, on the other hand, arises from the force vector component perpendicular to the material cross section on which it acts.
How to Calculate Shear Stress in given Force on Key?
Shear Stress in given Force on Key calculator uses Shear Stress in Key = Force on Key/(Width of Key*Length of Key) to calculate the Shear Stress in Key, Shear Stress in given Force on Key is defined as the component of stress coplanar with the key's cross-section. It arises from the shear force, the component of the force vector parallel to the material cross-section. Shear Stress in Key is denoted by 𝜏 symbol.
How to calculate Shear Stress in given Force on Key using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Shear Stress in given Force on Key, enter Force on Key (F), Width of Key (bk) & Length of Key (l) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Shear Stress in given Force on Key calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5.7E-5 = 9980/(0.005*0.035).
