Shear ModulusHardQuestion 6343

Question

Angle of shear (φ) for a shear strain of 0.01:
  1. A
    0.01 rad ≈ 0.57°
    Correct
  2. B
    1 rad
  3. C
    0.1 rad
  4. D
    0.001 rad

Correct answer

0.01 rad ≈ 0.57°

Explanation

Shear strain = tanφ ≈ φ (for small angles). φ = 0.01 rad ≈ 0.57°.
