Stress Strain Modulus
1. **State the problem:**
A steel wire 2 meters long and 4 millimeters in diameter is stretched under a load until its length becomes 200.1 meters. We need to calculate the stress, strain, and modulus of elasticity.
2. **Given data:**
- Original length, $L_0 = 2$ m
- Final length, $L = 200.1$ m
- Diameter, $d = 4$ mm = 0.004 m
3. **Formulas and definitions:**
- Strain ($\varepsilon$) is the relative change in length:
$$\varepsilon = \frac{\Delta L}{L_0} = \frac{L - L_0}{L_0}$$
- Stress ($\sigma$) is force per unit area:
$$\sigma = \frac{F}{A}$$
- Modulus of elasticity ($E$) relates stress and strain:
$$E = \frac{\sigma}{\varepsilon}$$
4. **Calculate strain:**
$$\varepsilon = \frac{200.1 - 2}{2} = \frac{198.1}{2} = 99.05$$
5. **Calculate cross-sectional area:**
The cross-sectional area of the wire is a circle:
$$A = \pi \left(\frac{d}{2}\right)^2 = \pi \left(\frac{0.004}{2}\right)^2 = \pi (0.002)^2 = \pi \times 4 \times 10^{-6} = 1.2566 \times 10^{-5} \text{ m}^2$$
6. **Calculate stress:**
We need the force $F$ to calculate stress, but it is not given. Without the force, stress and modulus of elasticity cannot be numerically determined.
7. **Conclusion:**
- Strain is $99.05$ (a very large strain, indicating extreme elongation).
- Stress and modulus of elasticity require the applied force $F$ to be known.
If the force is provided, we can calculate stress and then modulus of elasticity using the formulas above.
