Define longitudinal strain and shearing (tangential) stress and write their formulas. What is the magnitude of hydraulic stress?

  • A
    Longitudinal strain = $\Delta L / L$,Shearing stress = $F/A$,Hydraulic stress = $F/A$
  • B
    Longitudinal strain = $L / \Delta L$,Shearing stress = $A/F$,Hydraulic stress = $P$
  • C
    Longitudinal strain = $\Delta L / L$,Shearing stress = $F_{tangential}/A$,Hydraulic stress = $P = F/A$
  • D
    Longitudinal strain = $\Delta L / L$,Shearing stress = $F/A$,Hydraulic stress = $0$
