- \( 0.3 \)
- \( -1.5 \)
- \( -0.8 \)
- \( 0.4 \)
Show Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Poisson’s ratio \( \nu \) is defined as:
\[ \nu = -\frac{\text{Lateral strain}}{\text{Longitudinal strain}} \] It is typically in the range \( -1 \leq \nu \leq 0.5 \) for stable materials. Since \( -1.5 \) falls outside this range, it is not possible.
\[ \nu = -\frac{\text{Lateral strain}}{\text{Longitudinal strain}} \] It is typically in the range \( -1 \leq \nu \leq 0.5 \) for stable materials. Since \( -1.5 \) falls outside this range, it is not possible.
