y direction,for the magnitude and direction of stress on plane A B due to±h(Pi—p2)- As O M and O Q both act on the same unit ofarea of A B, R O, in the opposite direction to their resultantO R, will give the direction and magnitude of the unit stress onA B to balance pi on O B and p2 on O A. In the… … Fig. 66 be negative or tension. If A B is taken much more steeplyinclined, such will be the case. The small prisms illustrate theconstructions. If R O falls on A B, it will be shear. Someconstructions for different inclinations of plane A B will be help-ful to an understanding of the matter. A much…
