A 20-mm-wide block is firmly bonded to rigid plates at its top and bottom. When the force P is applied the block deforms into the shape shown by the dashed line. (Figure 1) Part A Determine the magnitude of P. The block's material has a modulus of rigidity of G= 24 GPa .Assume that the material does not yield and use sma angle analysis.

A thin rectangular plate ABCD is deformed into a parallelogram as shown in the figure below.  The width of the plate is w = 1300 mm, and the height of the plate is h = 1700 mm.   The shear strain at A is known to be +4172 μrad.  Assume a = 2.9 mm.  Calculate the magnitude of dimension b in the figure.
