A centric load P is applied to the granite block shown. Knowing that the resulting maximum value of the shearing stress in the block is 2.5 ksi, determine (a) the magnitude of P, (b) the orientation of the surface on which the maximum shearing stress occurs, (c) the normal stress exerted on the surface, (d) the maximum value of the normal stress in the block.
