Vedclass · Answer

(A) The relationship between Young's modulus $(Y)$,Bulk modulus $(K)$,and Modulus of rigidity $(\eta)$ with Poisson's ratio $(\sigma)$ is given by:$Y = 3K(1 - 2\sigma)$$Y = 2\eta(1 + \sigma)$For a stable material,the moduli of elasticity must be positive $(Y, K, \eta > 0)$.From $Y = 3K(1 - 2\sigma) > 0$,we get $1 - 2\sigma > 0$,which implies $\sigma From $Y = 2\eta(1 + \sigma) > 0$,we get $1 + \sigma > 0$,which implies $\sigma > -1$.Therefore,the theoretical range for Poisson's ratio is $-1 < \sigma < \frac{1}{2}$.

Liquids have no Poisson's ratio,because

$A$ tension of $20 \,N$ is applied to a copper wire of cross-sectional area $0.01 \,cm^2$. The Young's modulus of copper is $1.1 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$ and the Poisson's ratio is $0.32$. The decrease in the cross-sectional area of the wire is:

If the Young's modulus of the material is $3$ times its modulus of rigidity,then its volume elasticity (bulk modulus) will be:
