A uniformly distributed load of intensity p is applied over a short distance on the straight edge of a large plate (Fig. P3.34). Determine stresses and in terms of p, as required. [Hint: Let denote the load acting on an infinitesimal length (from geometry) and hence Substitute this into Eqs. (3.50) and integrate the resulting expressions.]
