Elastic Modulie

Question

There is no change in the volume of a wire due to change in its length on stretching. The Poisson's ratio of the material of the wire is

Easy

A

0.50
B

-0.50
C

+0.25
D

-0.25

Solution

Let D be the diameter and Y, the volume. Then
$V = \frac{{πD}^{2} L}{4}$
There is no change in volume
$∴ 0 = π 2 DdDL + {πD}^{2} dL$
or $\frac{(dD / D)}{(dL / L)} = - 0 \cdot 5$
