Q4. A plastic cube plug with each side length of 112 mm is inserted into space that is slightly wider than the cube as shown, with all the gaps of 0.1 mm wide. The plug is made from a material for which E= 3 GPa and v=0.43. If a uniformly distributed load p is applied on the top surface of the cube as shown, and the cube uniformly expands just enough to fill the space completely in both horizontal (x and y) directions, determine the principal strain , at a point on the surface of the cube: the strain is very small, in the form of qx 10-³; determine the value of q. Sign convention must be followed. L₂ Side view 2₂ X Top view P Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Your answer must include 2 places after the decimal point.
