Answer:
d = 1.9 in
Explanation:
Since, the tension force is greater than the shear force. Hence, the area of cross-section shall be limited by the tension:
Tension = Force/Area
Area = Force/Tension
Area = 89 kips/31 ksi
Area = 2.87 in²
but,
Area = πd²/4
2.87 in² = πd²/4
(2.87 in²)(4)/π = d²
d = √(3.65 in²)
d = 1.9 in
