Part 1 Flashcards
What are superconductors
Superconductors can support current with zero resistance, and produce high magnetic fields
Strain
Applying force (stress) to an object causes it to deform
Tensile stress
Vertical force
Shear stress
Horizontal force
Poissons ratio
Relative amount of lengthening and shortening
Effect of poissons ratio
A) tensile
B) compressive
A) longer thinner specimen
B) shorter fatter specimen
Hookes law
For small strains, strain is nearly proportional to stress
Young’s modulus
Ratio of linear stress to linear strain
Shear modulus
Modulus of rigidity
Ratio of shear stress to shear strain
Bulk modulus
Resistance to uniform compression
