Question

A 30 cm long, 12 mm diameter carbon steel rod was subjected to 15.5 kN of tension. Calculate:

 (a) the stress and strain in the rod

(b) the amount that it stretches,

 (c) its change in diameter and its stiffness (k= EA/L),

(d) If the force was only 4.5 kN, by what amount would the rod have stretched?
