Perpendicular Distance between Two Surfaces given Shear Angle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Perpendicular Distance = Displacement of Upper Surface/tan(Angle of Shear)
d = l/tan(Q)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)

Variables Used

Perpendicular Distance - (Measured in Meter) - The Perpendicular Distance between two objects is the distance from one to the other, measured along a line that is perpendicular to one or both.
Displacement of Upper Surface - (Measured in Meter) - Displacement of Upper Surface refers to the change in position of the upper layer of an elastic material when subjected to external forces, which is recoverable once the stress is removed.
Angle of Shear - (Measured in Radian) - The Angle of Shear is the angle by which a material element deforms due to applied shear stress.
