Question

a 60 kg motor rests on four cylindrical rubber blocks each cylinder
has a height of 3 cm and a cross sectional area of 15 cm^2 the
shear modulus for this rubber is 2 × 10^6 Nm^-2 if a sideways
force of 300N is applied to the motor, how far will it move
sideways??

Dear
Student,
Please find below the solution
to the asked query:
Force applied on each block:F=3004=75 NDistance moved sideways:∆L=FLAη=75×0
0315×10-4×2×106=0 00075 m=0 075 cm
