A distributed force deforms a cuboid made from a new experimental material

A distributed force deforms a cuboid made from a new experimental material as shown. The slope of the highlighted edge of the cuboid is shown in the image below. W y y = ax x Use the following values in your working out: a) Calculate the shear modulus for the material. (2 marks) a = 17 b = 1.3 m c = 2.3 m w = 275 x10^6 N/m lat = 48 m/m b) Using Young's Modulus = 10 GPa, calculate the Poisson's ratio for the material. (1.5 marks) c) A small cube of the material is sent to a lab for testing and subjected to uniaxial deformation until a lateral strain of lat is developed. What is the signed axial strain, eax in this test cube? (1 mark)
