Robert Hook

53) The Poisson’s Ratio is the ratio of

Discuss in Comment

lateral strain to longitudinal strain

54) For the materials which do not have a pronounced yield point from a tension test the yield point is taken to be

Discuss in Comment

the stress at which the permanent set reaches the value 0.2%

55) Statically indeterminate structures are opted inspite of being indeterminate because

Discuss in Comment

higher loads can be supported with less consumption of material

56) A brittle material will

Discuss in Comment

fail suddenly

57) Creep of a material is

Discuss in Comment

continued deformation with time under sustained loading

58) In the Euler’s theory for long columns it is assumed that

Discuss in Comment

the failure occurs by buckling only

59) In the case of long columns the maximum permissible stress depends on

Discuss in Comment

the maximum slenderness ratio
