II JUST WANT TO LEARN THE ANSWER OF 24 TH QUESTION

23. According to our text book a realistic value for the unconfined compressive strength oc of basalt is 200 MPa, and the modulus of elasticity is around 100 GPa. What is the critical deformation Ec at which the material breaks? Assume that Hook's law is valid and no ductile deformation occurs before material failure. 24. Typical questions would concern directions of 01, 02,03, name of the fault, is this a fault?, Displacement on fault Fault plane
