A tensile test specimen has a starting gage length 50 mm and a cross-sectional area 200 mm2. During the test, the specimen yields under a load of 30,000 N (this is the 0.2% offset) at a gage length of 52 mm. The maximum load of 63,000 N is reached at a gage length of 57 mm just before necking begins. Final fracture occurs at a gage length of 63.5 mm. Determine (a) yield strength, (b) modulus of elasticity, (c) tensile strength, (d) engineering strain at maximum load, and (e) percent elongation.

Question

A tensile test specimen has a starting gage length 50 mm and a cross-sectional area 200 mm2. During the test, the specimen yields under a load of 30,000 N (this is the 0.2% offset) at a gage length of 52 mm.
The maximum load of 63,000 N is reached at a gage length of 57 mm just before necking begins. Final fracture occurs at a gage length of 63.5 mm. Determine (a) yield strength, (b) modulus of elasticity, (c) tensile strength, (d) engineering strain at maximum load, and (e) percent elongation.
