Between each pair of vertebrae in the spinal column is a cylindrical disc of cartilage. Typically, this disc has a radius of about 3.2 x 102mand a thickness of about 1.2x 10 m. The shear modulus of cartilage is 1.2x 10 N/m2. Suppose a shearing force of magnitude 20 Nis applied parallel to the top surface of the disc while the bottom surftace remains fixed in place.

The lintel of prestressed reinforced concrete in Figure P12.27 is 1.50 m long. The concrete encloses one steel reinforcing rod with cross-sectional area 1.50 cm2. The rod joins two strong end plates. The cross-sectional area of the concrete perpendicular to the rod is 50.0 cm2. Youngs modulus for the concrete is 30.0 109 N/m2.
