Question

Elastic Recovery-need help plz


Hiya
Im doing material science as part of my dental technology course. I've got a question, and i'm fidning it hard to tackle.If anyone can help or set me in the right direction, i would be most grateful

Wire, of diameter 0.46 mm, length 100mm.it is subjected to tensile force of 2356 N, taking it beyond its yield point.
Calculate, in mm, the elastic recovery that would occur upon removal of the tensile load

Info given: Modulas of elasticity 67 GPa
Yield Strength 698 MPa
Tensile Strength 1379 MPa
