Question 24 / 40:  A cylindrical body of length body of length 5 cm and diameter 1 cm is subject to a tension force of 1000 N. The cylinder extends by 3 mm in length. If the body behaves elastically, which of the following represents Youngs modulus for that material?
A  212 MPa
B  848 MPa
C  848 kPa
D  212 KPa
E  424 kPa
<< First < Previous Flashcard Next > Last >>
Explanation:

First calculate the force per cross sectional area by dividing 1000 N by the area of the cylinder; this is the stress. The calculate the strain from 0.3 cm/5 cm = 0.06. Young's modulus can be found by dividing the stress by the strain. Be careful with units. You may wish to review section 2.2.
