Answer:
The modulus of elasticity of the material is 3.82 N/m^2
Explanation:
Modulus of elasticity = stress/strain
Stress = load/area
Load = 10 kip = 10×4448.2216 = 44482.216 N
Area = 12 in^2 = 12 in^2 × (1 m/0.0254 in)^2 = 18600 m^2
Stress = 44482.216/18600 = 2.39 N/m^2
Strain = extension/length = 0.005 in/8 in = 6.25×10^-4
Modulus of elasticity = 2.39/6.25×10^-4 = 3.82 N/m^2
