Turkey is to be sliced for a sandwich meat packaging company. A block of the turkey has a bottom surface of 12 cm x 9 cm. The block is held securely in a meat slicing machine. A slicing blade moves across the top surface of the turkey with a uniform lateral force of 28 N and slices a thin portion from the block. The shear modulus, G, of the turkey is 31.0 kPa. Estimate the deflection of the top surface with respect to the bottom surface of the block during slicing.
