When a rubber strip with a cross section of 3 mm x 1.5 mm is suspended vertically and various masses are attached to it, a student obtains the following data for length versus load:

|Load, g Length, cm 0 100 200 300 300 500 5.6 6.2 6.9 7.8 10.0 5.0


(a) Find Young’s modulus for the rubber strip for small loads.

(b) Find the energy stored in the strip when the load is 150 g.

|Load, g Length, cm 0 100 200 300 300 500 5.6 6.2 6.9 7.8 10.0 5.0
