if they are short or in tension they are the same, when they bend the hollow tube has a bigger second moment of area and so is stronger to any bending moment

What is stronger solid shaft or hollow shaft?

Depends on what you mean by "better". For the same dimensions, a solid shaft will be a bit stronger, but also a lot heavier. If you were to make a hollow shaft of the same weight, but a bigger diameter, it'd be a lot stronger than the solid shaft.


What is stronger a round steel pipe or a steel hollow square bar?

By stronger, we need to define the loading conditions of the rod or pipe. The strength of a rod or pipe is typically evaluated with axial, transverse (bending), and torsion loads. With the same diameter and the same material, a solid rod is stronger than a hollow pipe. However, with the same weight and material, the hollow pipe is stronger than a solid rod. Because a hollow pipe is lighter than a solid rod at the same diameter, the hollow pipe would have a larger diameter in order to match weights with the solid rod and a larger diameter rod or pipe is stronger than a smaller diameter one.


Does a hollow metal tube conduct as good as a solid rod of the same material?

as in solid rod there has more free electrons which will cause more current than a hollow metal tube of same dia/length/material.


What is the Concrete hollow block size in the Philippines?

What is solid slab?

A solid slab is either solid concrete foundation or a flat solid wood door as opposed to a hollow core or a panel door.

Is a cylinder a solid?

No! I believe a solid cylinder shaped gidget is a "Cone"??? Now that I think of an Ice Cream Cone, I wonder and will say then I do not know what a solid cylinder is... ClydeD Boug Its a solid, if its hollow, then its a tin can!

What is the mass of a copper cylinder that's 12.5 mm?

This question cannot be answered because not enough information is provided. It isn't indicated whether 12.5 mm is the length or the diameter and, in either case, the other dimension is missing. In addition, it isn't indicated whether or not the cylinder is solid or hollow and, if hollow, what the wall thickness is.


Is a hollow part stronger than solid part?

Not usually, but it depends on the direction of stress involved.


What are the differences between a hollow shaft and a solid shaft?

A hollow shaft has a empty space inside, while a solid shaft is completely filled. Hollow shafts are lighter and can be more flexible, while solid shafts are stronger and stiffer. Hollow shafts are often used when weight is a concern, while solid shafts are used when strength is more important.


What is the curved surface area of a cylinder of length 12 cm and diameter 8 cm?

there is no area. it is called surface area which is =2(pi)rh+2(pi)r(squared). this is the total surface are of a SOLID cylinder. for an open or hollow one it is =2(pi)rh+(pi)r(squared)


The moment of inertia of a solid cylinder is?

Why is hollow steel pipe stronger than solid steel?

For a given outer diameter, the solid shaft is stronger, but it weighs more.For a given weight, the hollow shaft is stronger because it has a bigger diameter.due to less weight & less bending moment..............the resultant bending moment for a solid pipe is much larger than for a hollow one because of their weight difference
