A horizontal aluminum rod 4.8 cm in diameter projects 5.3 cm from a wall. A 1200 kg object is suspended from the end of the rod. The shear modulus of aluminum is \(3.0 × 10^{10} N/m^{2}\). Neglecting the rod’s mass, find (a) the shear stress on the rod and (b) the vertical deflection of the end of the rod. Text Transcription: 3.0 × 10^10 N/m^2

Question
Figure 12-59 shows the stress versus strain plot for an aluminum wire that is stretched by a machine pulling in opposite directions at the two ends of the wire. The scale of the stress axis is set by s = 7.0, in units of \(10^{7} N/m^{2}\). The wire has an initial length of 0.800 m and an initial cross sectional area of \(2.00 × 10^{−6} m^{2}\). How much work does the force from the machine do on the wire to produce a strain of \(1.00 × 10^{−3}\)?
