Question 17
XE-DNAT2 marksNeeds review
A solid rod, with uniform circular cross section, of length 100 mm and diameter 100 mm is subjected to a uniaxial tensile load. As a result, the increase in length of the rod is observed to be 1 mm while the reduction in diameter of the rod is observed to be 0.03 mm. If the Young’s modulus of the material of the rod is 260 GPa, the shear modulus (in GPa) of the material of the rod is ________.
