Determine the maximum tensile and compressive stresses


An aluminum pole for a street light weighs 4600 N and supports an arm that weighs 660 N (see figure). The center of gravity of the arm is 1.2 m from the axis of the pole. A wind force of 300 N also acts in the (-y) direction at 9 m above the base. The outside diameter of the pole (at its base) is 225 mm, and its thickness is 18 mm
Determine the maximum tensile and compressive stresses σt and σc, respectively, in the pole (at its base) due to the weights and the wind force
