Homework Statement
[PLAIN]http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/8600/217yf.jpg
The attempt at a solution
This is my work for part (a):
\delta = \frac{PL}{AE}
\delta = \frac{(6*10^3 N)(0.4 m)}{(70*10^9 Pa)(\frac{\pi}{4})(0.02^2 m)}
\delta = 0.1091 mm
However, the solution for this is actually 0.01819 mm. Where did I go wrong?
