The Young's modulus of a material is 2x10^10 N/m^2. If its length is doubled, then find the force applied on it if it has an area of 100 m².
Added by James H.
Step 1
It is a measure of the ability of a material to withstand changes in length when under lengthwise tension or compression. It is calculated as the ratio of stress to strain. The formula for stress is Force/Area and the formula for strain is Change in Show more…

A structural steel rod has a radius of $10 \mathrm{~mm}$ and a length of $1 \mathrm{~m}$. A $100 \mathrm{kN}$ force $F$ stretches it along its length. The strain in rod is $1.59 \times 10^{-n}$ then the value of $\mathrm{n}$ is. Given that the Young's modulus $E$ of the structural steel is $2.0 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^{-2}$.
Two persons pull a rope towards themselves. Each person exerts a force of $100 \mathrm{~N}$ on the rope. Find the Young's modulus of the material of the rope if it extends in length by $1 \mathrm{~cm}$. Original length of the rope $=2 \mathrm{~m}$ and the area of cross-section $=2 \mathrm{~cm}^{2}$ (a) $10^{8} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}$ (b) $10^{7} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}$ (c) $10^{6} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}$ (d) $10^{5} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}$
