Current Question (ID: 10376)

Question:
The Poisson's ratio of a material is $0.4$. If a force is applied to a wire of this material, there is a decrease in the cross-section area by $2\%$. In such a case the percentage increase in its length will be:
Options:
  • 1. $3\%$
  • 2. $2.5\%$
  • 3. $1\%$
  • 4. $0.5\%$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: Using error analysis to find maximum percentage increase in length.}$ $\text{Step 1:}$ $A = \pi r^2$ $\sigma = 0.4$ $\frac{\Delta A}{A} \times 100 = 2\left(\frac{\Delta r}{r} \times 100\right)$ $\frac{\Delta r}{r} \times 100 = -1\%$ $\text{Step 2:}$ $\text{Poison's ratio is given by :}$ $\sigma = \frac{\text{lateral strain}}{\text{longitudinal strain}}$ $\sigma = \frac{-\frac{\Delta r}{r} \times 100}{\frac{\Delta l}{l} \times 100}$ $\frac{\Delta l}{l} \times 100 = \frac{1}{0.4}$ $= 2.5\%$
