One end of a wire of \(8 \mathrm{~mm}\) radius and \(100 \mathrm{~cm}\) length is fixed and the other end is twisted through an angle of \(45^{\circ}\). The angle of shear is

  1. A \(0.36^{\circ}\)
  2. B \(0.12^{\circ}\)
  3. C \(3.6^{\circ}\)
  4. D \(1.2^{\circ}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(0.36^{\circ}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, radius of wire \[ \begin{aligned} r & =8 \mathrm{~mm} \\ & =8 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{~m} \end{aligned} \] Length of wire, \(l=100 \mathrm{~cm}=1 \mathrm{~m}\) Twist, \(\phi=45^{\circ}\) Let shear angle be \(\theta\). and…
