Draw the Diagram for each problem. No need for solutions. 1. The distortion of the earth’s crust is an example of sheer on a large scale. A particular rock has a sheer modulus of 1.5 x10^10 Pa (N/m²) (Shear Modulus, S). What shear stress is applied when a 10 km layer (h) of rock is sheared a distance of 5 m (∆x). 2. Human bone has a Young’s Modulus of 14.5 x10^8 N/m2 (Y). Under compression, it can withstand a stress of about 160 x 106 N/m2 (stress) before breaking. Assuming a human adult thigh bone (femur) is about .5 m (L) long, how much compression (∆L) can the bone withstand before breaking. 3. A uniform pressure of 5.00 × 10^4 Pa is exerted on a copper block having a volume of 10^–3 m3. What is the change in volume of the block? 4. During a tensile strength experiment, a small-diameter fiber is elongated by a force of 0.0250 N. The fiber has an initial length of 0.200 m and stretches a distance of 4.00 × 1024 m. The Young’s modulus for the material being tested is 7.60 × 10^10 Pa. Determine the diameter of the fiber. 5. .A 1.6 m long steel piano wire has a diameter of 0.2 cm. How great is the tension in the wire if it stretches 0.25 cm when tightened? Young modulus for steel is 2.00 x 1011 m/m
