The Poisson's ratio definition is given as the change in lateral deformation over longitudinal deformation. Mathematically it could be expressed like this,

$\upsilon = \frac{\text{Lateral Strain}}{\text{Longitudinal Strain}}$

$\upsilon = \frac{(\delta a/a)}{(\delta l/l)}$

Replacing with our values we would have to,

$\upsilon = \frac{(2.89933-2.9/2.9)}{(9.70710-9.7/97)}$

$\upsilon = 0.1977$

Therefore Poisson's ratio is 0.1977.

Answer:

The force is $F= 46.25kN$

Explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

At Equilibrium the summation of the of force on the vertical axis is zero

i.e $\sum F_y =0$

=> $F_y sin \ 60^o =\rho Q (v_2 -v_1 cos \ 30^o)$

$v_2$ is the is the speed of water at the nozzle which can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_2 = \frac{R}{A_n}$

substituting $0.5m^3/s$ for R and $\frac{\pi}{4}(12*\frac{1m}{100} )^2$ for $A_n$

$v_2 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{\pi}{4} * (12*\frac{1}{100} )^2 }$

$= 44.23 m/s$

$v_1$ is the is the speed of water at the pipe which can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_1 = \frac{R}{A_p}$

substituting $0.5m^3/s$ for R and $\frac{\pi}{4}(30*\frac{1m}{100} )^2$ for $A_p$

$v_1 = \frac{0.5}{\frac{\pi}{4} * (30*\frac{1}{100} )^2 }$

$= 7.07 m/s$

$\rho$ is he density of water with value $\rho =1000 kg /m^3$

Substituting values into the equation above

$F_ysin 60^o = 1000 (0.5) (44.23 -7.07 cos 30)$

$= 21.99kN$

At Equilibrium the summation of the of force on the horizontal axis is zero

i.e $\sum F_x =0$

=> $F_y sin \ 30^o =\rho Q (v_2 -v_1 sin \ 30^o)$

Since The speed at both A and B nozzle are the same then $v_2$ remains the same

Substituting values

$F_x sin30^o =1000 (0.5) (44.23 - 7.07*sin30)$

=> $F_x = 40.69kN$

Hence the force acting on the flange bolts required to hold the nozzle in place is

$F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}$

$= \sqrt{40.69 ^2 + 21.99^2}$

$F= 46.25kN$
