### Problem 2.7-12

**Problem Statement:**

Shear stress \( \tau \) produces a shear strain \( \gamma_{xy} \) (between lines in the \( x \) direction and lines in the \( y \) direction) of \( \gamma_{xy} = 1200 \, \mu \) (i.e., \( \gamma = 0.0012 \, \text{m/m} \)).

**Tasks:**
1. Determine the horizontal displacement \( \delta_A \) of point A.
2. Determine the shear strain \( \gamma_{x'y'} \) between the lines in the \( x' \) direction and the \( y' \) direction, as shown in Fig. P2.7-12.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram shows a parallelogram-shaped section that has been distorted by shear stress \( \tau \).

- The original position is marked by the \( x \) and \( y \) axes, while the distorted position is marked by the \( x' \) and \( y' \) axes.
- Initial dimensions are provided:
  - Height along the \( y \) axis: 120 mm
  - Base length along the \( x \) axis: 150 mm
- The point A is located at the upper-right corner of the parallelogram.
- After distortion, the point A is displaced horizontally by \( \delta_A \).

**Detailed Steps Solution:**

1. **Horizontal Displacement, \( \delta_A \):**

   Shear strain (\( \gamma_{xy} \)) relates to the horizontal displacement (\( \delta_A \)) by the formula:
   \[
   \gamma_{xy} = \frac{\delta_A}{y}
   \]
   Where \(\gamma_{xy}\) is known and \( y \) is the height of the parallelogram.

   Plugging in the given values:
   \[
   \gamma_{xy} = 0.0012 \, \text{m/m}
   \]
   \[
   y = 120 \, \text{mm} = 0.12 \, \text{m}
   \]

   Therefore,
   \[
   \delta_A = \gamma_{xy} \times y = 0.0012 \times 0.12 = 0.000144 \, \text{
