To all,
So i"m studying physics for MCAT and I'm on solids sections, specifically on elastic properties of solids, I kind of get it but there is a problem I do not understand. The problem is:
A 2.5-kilogram (kg) mass is attached to one end of a sample of artery with 0.05 centimeter (cm) radius and 15 millimeter (mm) length. The other end of the artery sample is secured to a rigid support. Determine the elongation of the artery sample Y= 1x10^8 Nm^2.
Mostly I'm having a problem with determining which equation to use for this example, could someone help me out and maybe give me guidelines to what I should look for so I know which equations or theorems to use.
Thank you,
Justina
