2) Bulk Modulus(K):-
It is the ratio of volume stress to the volume strain.
K = volume stress
volume strain
= dP
(dV/V)
= V.dP
dV
S.I unit of Y is N/m2
Dimensions are [L-1 M1 T-2]
Determination of Young’s Modulus of the
Material of a wire
Modulus of Rigidity(η):-
It is the ratio of shearing stress to the shearing strain.
η = shearing stress/shearing strain.
= (F/A)/θ
= F/A θ
Poisson’s Ratio(σ):
“It is defined as the ratio of lateral strain to the longitudinal strain.”
σ = lateral strain/longitudinal strain
but, lateral strain= Change in dimension/original dimension
and longitudinal strain = Change in length/original length
.’. σ = (-dW/W)
(l/L)
= dW.L
Wl
Negative sign indicates that increase in length is accompanied by decrease in
its
transverse dimensions.
FACTOR OF SAFETY
• To avoid permanent elastic limit with a working stress.
• Factor of safety deformation is due to maximum stress above which a
material looses, the engineering tools are to be used within the factor of
safety
• Factor of safety = Breaking stress / Working stress.
ELASTIC DEFORMATION
• proportional limit: it is the point up to which hooks law is applicable i.e.,
stress is directly proportional to strain.
• Elastic limit: there is always the limiting value of load up to which strain
totally disappear on removal of load
• material possesses elastic nature and properties till elastic limit.
• up to this point material obtains its original configuration on
removing load.
• Yield point: The stress beyond which material becomes plastic.
• Load at which permanent deformation of material starts.
The material will have change in their elastic property because of the
following factors.
