Question

(a) A concrete cylinder of diameter $150\text{mm}$ and length $300\text{mm}$ when subjected to an axial compressive load of $240\text{kN}$ resulted in an increase of diameter by $0.127\text{mm}$ and a decrease in length of $0.28\text{mm}$. Compute the value of poisson's ratio and modulus of elasticity.

(b) Derive the relationship between Young's modulus and bulk modulus. Explain the concept of strain energy.
