Explanation

Angle of shear $ \phi = { r \theta \over L } = { 4 \times 10^{-1} \over 100 \times 30' } = 0.12 ' $

Explanation

Ivory is more elastic than wet-clay. Hence, the ball of ivory will rise to a greater height. In fact the ball of wet day will not rise at all it will be same, what flattended permanently.

Assertion and Reason : Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the option given below Assertion : Two identical solid balls, one of ivory and the other of wet clay are dropped from the same height on the floor. Both the balls will rise to same height after. Reason : Ivory and wet-clay have same elasticity.

Explanation

Young's modulus of a material Y = stress /strain Here, stress force = $ {Restrating \over area }$ force As restoring force is zero. Y = 0

Assertion and Reason : Read the assertion and reason carefully to mark the correct option out of the option given below Assertion : Identical spring of steel and copper are equally stretched more will be done on the steel spring. Reason : Steel is more elastic than copper.

Explanation

The modulus of rigidity, also known as shear modulus, is the measure of an object's ability to resist deformation under shear stress. Its formula is given by the ratio of shear stress to shear strain. The dimensional formula for shear stress is the same as pressure, which is $M^1 L^{-1} T^{-2}$. Thus, the correct dimensional formula for modulus of rigidity is $M^1 L^{-1} T^{-2}$. Hence, the correct answer is o2.
