1 of 1
Application +4 | -1
A cube of side 10 cm is subjected to a tangential force of 5×105 N5 \times {10^5}\,\mathrm{N} at the upper face, keeping lower face fixed. The upper face is displaced by 0.001 radian relative to the lower face along the direction of tangential force. The shear modulus of the material of the cube is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
5  ×1010 Nm−25\,\, \times {10^{10}}\,\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{m}^{ - 2}}
Option A (x=12.5x = 12.5) is correct because the spring constant is inversely proportional to the length of the spring. By setting up equations based on the extensions and lengths of the spring parts, we can solve for the original extension x.
