A rectangular block of wood, 2 in. by 2 in. in cross section, has an ultimate shear strength of 1200 psi. The block is subjected to an increasing tensile load until failure by shear occurs along the grain, which is at an angle of 10° with the longitudinal axis of the member, as shown. Compute the magnitude of the load P at which failure occurs. Use nominal dimensions.
