Question: The experimental values in Table 3 were obtained for the Young modulus E and the shear modulus G of steel: The formula (E/2G) ? 1

The experimental values in Table 3 were obtained for the Young modulus E and the shear modulus G of steel:

E/1010 N m-2 G/10t0 Nm-? 20.9 8.13 20.6 21.0 8.12 8.15 8.08

The formula (E/2G) ? 1 = v was then used to calculate the Poisson ratio v. Find v and estimate its error.

E/1010 N m-2 G/10t0 Nm-? 20.9 8.13 20.6 21.0 8.12 8.15 8.08
