STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Shear Force at Section: 4.9 Kilonewton --> 4900 Newton (Check conversion here)
Area of Section above Considered Level: 6400 Square Millimeter --> 0.0064 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
Distance of CG of Area from NA: 82 Millimeter --> 0.082 Meter (Check conversion here)
Moment of Inertia of Area of Section: 0.00168 Meter⁴ --> 0.00168 Meter⁴ No Conversion Required
Beam Width at Considered Level: 95 Millimeter --> 0.095 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

𝜏_section = (S*A_abv*ȳ)/(I*w) --> (4900*0.0064*0.082)/(0.00168*0.095)

Evaluating ... ...

𝜏_section = 16112.2807017544

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

16112.2807017544 Pascal -->0.0161122807017544 Megapascal (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.0161122807017544 ≈ 0.016112 Megapascal <-- Shear stress at section
