Homework Statement
A wire of length 4.97 m with a cross-sectional area of 0.101 cm2 stretches by 6.53 mm when a load of 0.92 kN is hung from it. What is the Young's modulus for this wire?
Homework Equations
(F/A) = Y(Change in Length/Initial Length)
The Attempt at a Solution
(920 N)(4.97m)/(.00653m)(.0000104 m^2) = 6.73283E10
I can't seemt to figure out what I am doing wrong... Is that answer not in Pa?
