'Gummy 1' = Black Line 'Gummy 2' = Orange Line Approach: Using the diameter given and the force measurements on the vertical axis of the graph, I've worked out the cross-sectional area of the mold to be 0.000706858, which I've rounded to 0.00071. Using this data and the equation Stress = F/A...

My answer is (B) since it has the highest slope for the straight line part of the graph but the answer key is (A). Is it because the slope of graph B will decrease until the value less than slope A? So we don't only consider the straight line part but the whole graph? Thanks

We need to find a single wire supporting the load. But, when I think about it there can so many different types of materials we could use for the single wire and each of these single wires would have a different Young's Modulus. So, I don't get what equivalent means here? Anyways, I get the...

Hi. I am in the IB and am looking at doing a physics IA (internal assessment) on Young's modulus on an elastic material. I was thinking of doing it on the the stretchy snakes like the candy. What would I need to cover in this?

Hi all, I'm a little confused about something. Force-extension graphs and stress-strain graphs are always both straight lines up until the limit of proportionality, implying both the spring constant and the Young modulus are constant up until then. For a force-extension graph, Hooke's Law...

My Aim is to determine the youngs modulus of aluminium from the data we get from tensile strength test. The attached excel sheet contains all the data i am using such as elongation,load value(which is in kN i have converted to N for calculating Stress) For stress, I am using the formula...

Is it true for all material that if young's modulus is high then melting point will be high and coeff of thermal expansion will be lower? Any example that doesn't follow the above statement. Many Thanks

Hello everybody. I've measured the Young Modulus of PDMS samples both in compression and in tension. From compressive tests I get a Modulus twice as big as the one I get from tensile tests. Is it normal to get two different values for Young Modulus using tensile or compressive tests? Do you...

What is the difference between stiffness and Young Modulus and how can you calculate the stiffness?

If young modulus = stress/strain Wouldn't a different original length affect the value of young modulus ?

Homework Statement A rod is made up as shown [pic attached] Both have same cross-sectional area. Ep and En are Young modulus. The rod breaks when total extension = 3.0mm Greatest tensile stress that can be applied before rod breaks? Homework Equations Young modulus = stress / strain The...

Quoted from my book: "The graph of ΔL against F has gradient L/EA, so the Young modulus E is equal to L(A x gradient)." E is (stress/strain). I don't understand that sentence. If I substitute the gradient into E= L(A x gradient), then E= L(A)(L/EA) E= L(L/E) E= L^2 /E E square = L square...

Question 1: --> Why both the wires are suspended from the same rigid support in this experiment? Question 2: -->Why both the wires are taken of the same material?

Homework Statement A three-legged stool has one leg of aluminium (E = 7 x 1010 Pa), one copper (E = 11 x 1010 Pa) and one of steel (E = 20 x 1010) Pa. The legs have the same dimensions. If the load on the stool is at the exact center, a. Which leg is under the greatest stress? Explain why b...

Hi, dear all, Recently face some controversial issue with my supervisor and i cannot convince my self too. is it time varying elastance equal to time varying young modulus? Young modulus unit is Pa, however, elastance value is mmHg/ml, is both of them are equal? Young's modulus, also...
