A uniform cube is subjected to volume compression. If each side is decreased by 1 % then bulk strain is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If side of the cube is L then `V=L^(3)implies(dV)/V=3(dL)/L`
`:.` % change in volume `=3xx` (% change in length)
`=3xx1%=3%`
`:.` Bulk strain `(DeltaV)/V=0.03`
