Question

Two parallel and opposite forces, each of magnitude 4000 N, are applied tangentially to the upper and lower
faces of a cubical metal block of side 25 cm. If the shear modulus for the metal is 8 x 1010 Pa, then the
displacement of the upper surface relative to the lower surface will be ...​

Answer 1

Answer:

Two parallel and opposite forces,each 4000 N , are applied tangentially to the lower and upper faces of a cubical metal block 25 cm on a side. Find the angle of shear and the displacement of the upper surface relative to the lower surface. Shear modulus of the metal is 8 x 1010N/m2.
