Place a deck of cards on a table. Invite a kid to push sideways on the top part of the deck so the cards "smear" sideways, demonstrating the sliding action of shear force. Shearing stress on two parts of a structure that are bolted or nailed together can break the bolts or nails in two. Try the Forces Lab. |
