Calculations of Stress, Strain and Modulus of Elasticity-Steel
A steel rod with a length of 5 m, with a diameter of 45 mm has a load of
150 kN suspended (hanging) from it.
a) Calculate the stress the rod is under
b) Calculate the strain on the rod, given that the steel expands by 2.5 mm
c) Calculate Young's modulus of elasticity for that rod.
