Chapter 1, Problem 1.7QP

A rectangular block of aluminum 30 mm × 60 mm × 90 mm is placed in a pressure chamber and subjected to a pressure of 100 MPa. If the modulus of elasticity is 70 GPa and Poisson’s ratio is 0.333, what will be the decrease in the longest side of the block, assuming that the material remains within the linear elastic region? What will be the decrease in the volume of the block?
