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.

during convection, hot material _____ (expands & sinks, cools & rises, expands & rises, deflates & rises) then m
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

During convection, hot material expands & rises then moves to the side and cools & sinks. this circular pattern is called a convection current.

Explanation:

Convection is one of the three methods of transfer of heat. It occurs only in fluids (liquids or gases).

Convection occurs when there is a source of heat that heats a fluid, such as in a boiling pot of water. The water which is on the bottom of the pot becomes warmer before than the water at the top (because it is closer to the flame), and so it becomes less dense: for this reason, it expands and it becomes rising. On the contrary, the water on top is colder, so it is more dense and starts sinking, replacing the warmer water. As the new part of water gets warmer, it starts rising, and so the process is continuously repeated. This circular current is called convection current.

A person drives 20 miles north and 45 miles east. What is the angle of the resultant straight to their destination?
Alex787 [66]
Let us take east and north as the positive x and y-axes should the motion be plotted in a cartesian plane. Thus, the x value is 45 miles and the y value is 20. The tangent of an angle is equal to the ratio of y to x.

   tanθ = y / x

Substituting,

   tanθ = 20/45 = 0.44

The value of θ is 23.96°.
