Chapter 10 Problem 10-35

Question

The polyvinyl chloride bar is subjected to an axial force of 900 lb. If it has the original dimensions shown, determine the value of Poisson’s ratio if the angle \(\theta\) decreases by \(\Delta \theta=0.01^{\circ}\) after the load is applied. \(E_{\mathrm{pvc}}=800\left(10^{3}\right)\ \mathrm{psi}\).

Solution

Step 1 of 9

Given data:

Axial Force, P = 900 lb

Young’s Modulus, \(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{pvc}}=800\times10^3\mathrm{\ psi}\)

Decreases in he angle, \(\Delta \theta=0.01^{\circ}\)
