Chapter 17, Problem 33PCE
A 22-kg chimpanzee hangs from the end of a horizontal, broken branch 1.1 m long, as shown in Figure 17-34. The branch is a uniform cylinder 4.6 cm in diameter, and the end of the branch supporting the chimp sags downward through a vertical distance of 13 cm. What is the shear modulus for this branch?

In patients suffering from asthma, the thickness of the airway walls increases. This thickening results in a reduction of the local shear modulus of the airways by as much as 50% compared to the airways of a healthy person. In a particular person, the local shear modulus is reduced by 21%. Assume that the frictional force due to the air flowing through the airways of this person during an asthma attack increases by a factor of 2.5 over that of a healthy person. Calculate the ratio ? of the shear strain on this person's airway to that of a healthy airway.

In regions of the cardiovascular system where there is steady laminar blood flow, the shear stress on cells lining the walls of the
blood vessels is about 70 dyne/cm².
If the shear strain is about 0.008, estimate the shear modulus
