Problem $$02.081$$ - Hooke's Law for shearing stress and strain Two blocks of rubber, each of width $$w=60\mathrm{mm}$$, are bonded to rigid supports and to the movable plate $$AB$$. Knowing that a force of magnitude $$P=17\mathrm{kN}$$ causes a deflection $$?=3\mathrm{mm}$$ of plate $$AB$$, determine the modulus of rigidity of the rubber used. The modulus of rigidity of the rubber used is MPa.
