A steel [E = 207 GPa] tension member is being designed for an automobile. It must withstand a load of 3050 N and not elongate more than 0.12 mm in its 600-mm length. The yield strength of the steel is 440 MPa, and a factor of safety of 6.7 is specified with respect to yield. Compute the minimum required width of a square rod to satisfy these requirements. Answer: W = i mm
