A 10 cm long tensile specimen with a yield stress of 350 MPa is pull to a stress of 300 MPa and then the load is released. What is the length of the specimen after the load is released?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The length of the specimen after the load is released is 11.67 cm

Explanation:

Given;

yield stress, Y = 350 MPa

ultimate tensile stress, T = 300 MPa

Elongation factor, e = yield stress, Y / ultimate tensile stress, T

Elongation factor, e = 350 Mpa / 300 Mpa

Elongation factor, e = 1.1667

New length of the specimen = 1.1667 x 10 cm = 11.67 cm

Therefore, when the load is released from 10 cm long tensile specimen, the length of the specimen becomes 11.67 cm
