A body is subjected to a tensile stress of 1200 MPa on one plane and another tensile stress of 600 MPa on a plane at right angles to the former. It is also subjected to a shear stress of 400 MPa on the same planes. The maximum normal stress will be
400 MPa
500 MPa
900 MPa
1400 MPa

Principle stress are maximum or minimum normal stress which may be developed on a loaded body.

Maximum. normal stress = T.S - S.S.
= T.S1 + T.S2 - S.S.
= 1200 + 600 - 400 .
= 1400 answer.

The resultant tensile stress is (1200+600)/2 =900 MPA shear stress =400 Mpa using maximum normal stress theory 1/2(900+ 900^2+4 * 400^2) = 1400Mpa.

Two different stress act on a member design should be based on max principal stress so here we find max principal stress.

Use @Kamal talukdar formula. It is correct.

Principal Stress: Maximum and minimum normal stress possible for a specific point on a structural element.
