A block of Jell-O is resting on a plate. The Jell-O stands 0.03 m tall and in the shape of a square that is 0.07 m in length. You are bored, waiting for dinner and push tangentially across the top surface with a force of 0.45 N. The top surface moves a distance of ∆x = 6.0 x 10^-3 m relative to the bottom surface. What is the shear modulus of Jell-O?

Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, when it is provided with certain amount of force or load. These properties are to be kept in mind for various purposes. When a force is applied to an object, the object may or may not get deformed depending upon its elastic property. But every time the object develops a restoring force against the force applied. This is commonly known as stress. If the object changes its dimensions due to the force applied it develops strain ( which is the ratio of change in dimension to the original dimension).
