A cylindrical, 0.500-m rod has a diameter of 0.02 m. The rod is stretched to a length of 0.501 m by a force of 3000 N. What is the Young's modulus of the material?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Y = 4.775 x 10⁹ Pa = 4.775 GPa

Explanation:

First, we calculate the stress on the rod:

[tex]stress = \frac{Force}{Area} = \frac{3000\ N}{\pi r^2} \\\\stress = \frac{3000\ N}{\pi (0.01\ m)^2}\\\\stress = 9.55\ x\ 10^6\ Pa = 9.55 MPa\\[/tex]

Now, we calculate the strain:

[tex]strain = \frac{Change\ in Length}{Original\ Length}\\\\strain = \frac{0.501\ m - 0.5\ m}{0.5\ m}\\\\strain = 0.002\\[/tex]

Now, we will calculate the Young's Modulus (Y):

[tex]Y = \frac{stress}{strain}\\\\Y = \frac{9.55\ x\ 10^6\ Pa}{0.002} \\[/tex]

Y = 4.775 x 10⁹ Pa = 4.775 GPa
