A 200-kg superhero, falling off a building manages to grab hold of the end of a 3.0 m-long flagpole, 5.0 cm in radius, which saves him from falling any further. After the oscillations have died down, the end of the flagpole is sagging 10 cm
What is the shear modulus of the pole? A) 7.5 × 106 N/m2
B) 2.4 × 106 N/m2
C) 7.5 × 107 N/m2
D) 2.4 × 107 N/m2
E) 2.4 × 105 N/m2
