Lateral Strain Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Lateral Strain?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

Sd = \frac{∆d}{d}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

Sd = \frac{120mm}{2000mm}

Next Step Convert Units

∴

Sd = \frac{0.12m}{2m}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

Sd = \frac{0.12}{2}

LAST Step Evaluate

∴

Sd = 0.06
