Question 55
PINAT2 marksNeeds review
A cylindrical metal component of 10 mm diameter is subjected to uniform uniaxial tension during operation. It was observed that a force of 14 kN produces a uniform reduction of
mm in diameter. Assume that material behaviour is homogeneous, isotropic, and linear elastic.If its Young’s modulus is 150 GPa, the Poisson’s ratio of the material is _____ (rounded off to two decimal places).
Note: Assume
