Step 1
Young's modulus (E) is defined as the ratio of stress (σ) to strain (ε) in the linear elastic region of the stress-strain curve. Mathematically, it is given by: \[ E = \frac{\sigma}{\varepsilon} \] Show more…

Evaluate Young's modulus for the material whose stress-versus-strain curve is shown in the figure below.
Maitreya E.
The figure shows the stress-strain curve for a material. The scale of the stress axis is set by s = 350, in units of 10^6 N/m^2. What are (a) the Young's modulus and (b) the approximate yield strength for this material? Assume ε = 0.011.
