9.6 The edge of an aluminium cube is 10 cm long. One face of the cube is firmly fixed to a vertical wall. A mass of 100 kg is then attached to the opposite face of the cube. The shear modulus of aluminium is 25 GPa. What is the vertical deflection of this face?

Edge of the aluminium cube, L = 10 cm = 0.1 m, Area A = 0.01 m2

Mass attached, m = 100 kg = 100 * 9.8 = 980 N = Applied force F

Shear modulus η = 25 GPa = 25 *109Pa

Shear modulus η = Shear stress / Shear strain = FA? LL ,  ? L=F*Lη*A = 980*0.125*109*0.01 = 3.92 *10-7m

If μ  is Poisson’s ratio,

Y = 3K (1 - 2 μ )      ……… (1)

and Y = 2 n ( 1 + μ )  ……… (2)

With the help of equations (1) and (2), we can write

Initially S? L = 2m
S? L = √2² + (3/2)²
S? L = 5/2 = 2.5 m
? x = S? L - S? L = 0.5 m
So since λ = 1 m. ∴? x = λ/2
So white listener moves away from S? Then? x (= S? L − S? L) increases and hence, at? x = λ first maxima will appear.? x = λ = S? L − S? L.

0.4 = 20×10? ³ v²
v² = 20 => v = √20 ≈ 4.47 m/s
