The shear force applied has a magnitude of 1N. The box given below was initially a cube of 50cm side. Find the value of A *1010. Shear Modulus ‘G’ = 1010N/m2.

Elastic modulus measures the resistance of the material to elastic—or “springy”—deformation.

Low modulus materials are floppy and stretch a lot when they are pulled (squash down a lot when pushed). High modulus materials are opposite—they stretch very little when pulled (squash down very little when pushed).
