Lab 3 Report: Shear Modulus Analysis

This lab report analyzes the shear modulus of solid and hollow bars through torque and angle measurements. Data is presented in 4 tables measuring load, torque, angles of rotation, shear strain, and shear stress for each bar. The conclusion compares the experimental and literature shear modulus values for each bar and explains how differences in their polar moment of inertia affected the experimental data.
