a) The stress in the wire. Answer in MPa b) The strain in the wire. c) The increase in the length of the steel wire. Answer in mm
A 40 kg block of aluminum is hung from the end of a vertical 0.50 m long steel wire with a cross-sectional area of 5.0 x 105 m2.
Young's modulus of aluminum: 7.0 x 1010 Pa
Young's modulus of steel: 2.0 x 1011Pa
Tensile strength of steel: 3.0 x 10 Pa
Using the information above, determine the following:
