Question:

This is a stress–strain graph for a metal wire.

The wire has a diameter of 0.84 mm and a natural length of 3.5 m.
Use the graph to determine:
a. The Young modulus of the wire
b. The extension of the wire when the stress is 0.60 GPa
c. The force that causes the wire to break, assuming that the cross-sectional area of the wire remains constant
d. The energy stored when the wire has a stress of 0.60 GPa.
