Question

When subjected to a force of compression, the length of a bone (compression Young's modulus 7.7×10^9 N/m^2, tensile Young's modulus 3.1×10^10 N/m^2) decreases by 1.8×10^-5 m. When the same bone is subjected to a tensile force of the same magnitude, by how much does it stretch?

Step 1

Given: Compression Young's modulus (E_compression) = 7.7×10^9 N/m^2 Tensile Young's modulus (E_tensile) = 3.1×10^10 N/m^2 Change in length in compression (ΔL_c) = 1.8×10^-5 m Using the formula for compression Young's modulus: ΔL_c = (E_compression/E_tensile) * Show more…
