[ayaanle]

can any one help me with this question.....i am stuck


data for steal wire 1.72 m long and 0.4 mm diameter

load 10 20 30 40 50 60
extension 0.7 1.5 2.1 2.9 3.6 4.3

find youngs modulus???


i have this formula E=F/A*L/AL but dont know how to use it....

Welcome to PF.

It would help if you had the right equation:

A is your area - they give you the diameter.

F is your load - they give you a bunch of loads.

L is your length - they give you the length

ΔL is the change in length - they give you Δ's for various loads.
