Answer:
[tex]250[/tex] N/m2
Explanation:
Shear stress on cells lining the walls of the blood vessels is equal to [tex]20[/tex]20 dyne/cm2
In terms of Newton/square meter, shear stress is equal to
[tex]20*\frac{dyne}{cm^2} (\frac{10^{-5}N}{1 dyne} )*(\frac{1 cm^2}{10^{-4}*m^2} )\\= 2.0[/tex] N/m2
Shear modulus is equal to shear stress divided by shear strain
Thus, shear modulus is equal to
[tex]= \frac{2.0}{0.008} \\= 250[/tex]N/m2
