Q. The Poisson’s ratio cannot have the value
A) 0.7
B) 0.2
C) 0.1
D) 0.3
Explanation
(a) We know that the Poisson’s ratio have the theoretical value
$- 1 < \sigma < \frac{1}{2}$
But practically the value of $\sigma$ (Poisson’s ratio) is
$0 < \sigma < \frac{1}{2}$
So the Poisson’s ratio cannot have the value 0.7.
