Find what is the shear stress involved

Reference no: EM13672998

The distortion of the earth's crust is example of shear stress on large scale. A particular crust has a shear modulus of 1.0 x 10^10 pa. Find what is the shear stress involved when 11.0 kilometer of this rock is sheared through a distance of 3.5 meter?
