A marble column with a cross-sectional area of 25 cm2 supports a load of 7.0 104

Question:

A marble column with a cross-sectional area of 25 cm2 supports a load of 7.0 × 104 N. The marble has a Young's modulus of 6.0 × 1010 Pa and a compressive strength of 2.0 × 108 Pa?
(a) What is the stress in the column?
(b) What is the strain in the column?
(c) If the column is 2.0 m high, how much is its length changed by supporting the load? (d) What is the maximum weight the column can support?
