(a) Calculate the modulus of elasticity of this composite in the longitudinal direction.
(b) Calculate the modulus of elasticity of this composite in the transverse direction.
(c) Calculate the tensile strength in the longitudinal direction (Hint: the failure of the fiber is the onset of composite failure). (Only enter your final answer to each section.
