Hello friends,
so i have this problem:
A beam under test has a measured radius of curvature of 300 m. The bending moment applied to it is 8 Nm. The second moment of area is 8000 mm4. Calculate the modulus of elasticity for the material.
ok so using the engineers bending equation i have,
(M/I)*R = E
using the values stated above i get 300 Pa, answer however is 300 GPa - am i missing something simple? or is this a typo?
Thanks in advance
