𝛥𝑉
compression, 𝑉 , of water at the bottom of the ocean, given that the bulk modulus of
water is 2.2 × 10 9 Nm −2 . (Take g = 10 ms −2 )

8 A steel cable with a radius of 1.5 cm supports a chairlift at a ski area. If the maximum [2]
stress is not to exceed 108 N m–2, what is the maximum load the cable can support?
9 A piece of copper having a rectangular cross - section of 15.2 mm× 19.1 mm is pulled [3]
intension with 44,500 N force, producing only elastic deformation. Calculate the
resulting strain?
10 The edge of an aluminum cube is 10 cm long. One face of the cube is firmly fixed to a [3]
vertical wall. A mass of 100 kg is then attached to the opposite face of the cube. The
shear modulus of aluminium is 25 GPa. What is the vertical deflection of this face?
11 Read the text carefully and answer the questions: When a bar of cross - section A is [4]
subjected to equal and opposite tensile forces at its ends, then a restoring force equal to
the applied force normal to its cross - section comes into existence. This restoring force
per unit area of cross - section is known as tensile stress. While when the deforming
force acts tangentially to the surface, then this tangential force applied per unit area of
cross - section is known as tangential stress. consider a plane section of the bar whose
normal makes an angle𝜃 with the axis of the bar.
