Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.12QP
The rectangular metal block shown in Figure P1.11 is subjected to tension within the elastic range. The increase in the length of a is 0.05 mm and the Poisson’s ratio for the material is 0.33. If the original lengths of a and b were 50 mm and 25 mm, respectively, what is the change in the length of b? Is this change expansion or contraction?
