A specimen of steel has a rectangular cross section 20 mm wide and 40 mm thick, an


elastic modulus of 207 GPa, and a Poisson’s ratio of 0.30. If this specimen is pulled in
tension with a force of 60,000 N, what is the change in width if deformation is totally
elastic?
A. Increase in width of 3.62 x 10-6 m
B. Decrease in width of 7.24 x 10-6 m
C. Decrease in width of 2.18 x 10-6 m
D. Increase in width of 7.24 x 10-6 m
Answer: There's a decrease in width of 2.18 × 10^(-6) m Explanation: We are given; Shear Modulus;E = 207 GPa =
207 × 10^(9) N/m² Force;F = 60000 N. Poisson’s ratio; υ =0.30 We are told width is 20 mm and thickness 40 mm.
Thus; Area = 20 × 10^(-3) × 40 × 10^(-3) Area = 8 × 10^(-4) m² Now formula for shear modulus is; E = σ/ε_z Where σ
is stress given by the formula Force(F)/Area(A) While ε_z is longitudinal strain. Thus; E = (F/A)/ε_z ε_z = (F/A)/E ε_z
= (60,000/(8 × 10^(-4)))/(207 × 10^(9)) ε_z = 3.62 × 10^(-4) Now, formula for lateral strain is; ε_x = - υ × ε_z ε_x = -0.3
× 3.62 × 10^(-4) ε_x = -1.09 × 10^(-4) Now, change in width is given by; Δw = w_o × ε_x Where w_o is initial width =
20 × 10^(-3) m So; Δw = 20 × 10^(-3) × -1.09 × 10^(-4) Δw = -2.18 × 10^(-6) m Negative means the width decreased.
So there's a decrease in width of 2.18 × 10^(-6) m

stress–true strain plot for aluminum. Equation 6.18a becomes invalid past the point at
which necking begins; therefore, measured diameters are given below for the last four
data points, which should be used in true stress computations.
