Exploring Shear Strength

Real materials have the same shear strength as theoretical values.

Real materials have unpredictable shear strength compared to theoretical values.

Real materials have higher shear strength than theoretical values.

Real materials have lower shear strength than theoretical values. (correct)

They are unrelated.

They are very similar. (correct)

They are completely different.

They are exactly the same.

$\tau_{max} = Gb / a$

$\tau_{max} = Gb / 2\pi a$ (correct)

$\tau_{max} = 2\pi a / Gb$

$\tau_{max} = a / Gb$
