Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, when it is provided with certain amount of force or load. These properties are to be kept in mind for various purposes. When a force is applied to an object, the object may or may not get deformed depending upon its elastic property. But every time the object develops a restoring force against the force applied. This is commonly known as stress. If the object changes its dimensions due to the force applied it develops strain ( which is the ratio of change in dimension to the original dimension).

Bruce Lee was famous for breaking concrete blocks with a single karate chop. From slow-motion video, the speed of his 1.50-kg hand descending on a block was estimated to be 15.0 m/s, which decreased to a speed of 0.500 m/s in the 2.50 103 s during which his hand made contact with and broke through the block. The maximum shear stress a concrete block can be subjected to before breaking is 9.50 105 N/m2. a. What was the force exerted by Lees hand on the block? b. If a typical concrete block broken by Lee was 3.00 cm thick and 15.2 cm wide, what is the shear stress experienced by the concrete block? c. Will the concrete block succumb to Lees karate chop?
