Right answer is [B].

[D] is for strain energy stored in a material due to torsional stress. Here, shear stress is given for which B is true.

Ramesh Babu said:   1 decade ago
Yes option D is for strain energy stored in the material when it is subjected to torsional stress.

Manoj prasad said:   1 decade ago
Actually Q should be following way.

The strain energy stored in a solid circular shaft subjected to torsional stress (τ) is (where C = Modulus of rigidity for the shaft material),
then opt D.
OR

The strain energy stored in a solid circular shaft subjected to shear stress (τ) is (where C = Modulus of elasticity for the shaft material),
then opt B.

Under direct shear stress option B is correct.

The strain energy due to shear stress is answer B. Answer D is strain energy due to torsion.

ABHIUSHEK said:   10 years ago
Answer D only applicable when the shaft is under torsion. So here it is not perfect and answer B is correct.

SARABJEET SINGH SANDHU said:   10 years ago
But torsion occurs due to shear force. So o0tion (D) is correct.

Vijay kumar said:   9 years ago
Torsion energy = 1/2 * T * angle of twist.

So, option D is correct.

Indra said:   9 years ago
I think option B is correct.

Sharad said:   9 years ago
Yes, option B is the right answer.
