The Attempt at a Solution
I have gone through numerous attempts trying to solve this equation, i believe i am a factor of 10 out, as using the above equation gives me 19.9 GPa but i can't for the life of me figure out where i am missing the extra digit.
The materials are black mild steel and bright steel.
I've uploaded the graph in case I've stated anything wrong, looking at the first 3 specimens. (second graph is irrelevant)
