Answer:
maximum length to which it may be stretched without causing plastic deformation is 200 + 0.4782 = 2.4782 mm
Explanation:
given data
stress = 275 MPa
modulus of elasticity = 115 GPa
solution
we will apply here modulus of elasticity formula that is
modulus of elasticity = stress ÷ strain ....................1
here we consider original length is 200 mm
so strain is = [tex]\frac{\triangle L}{original\ length }[/tex] ..........2
put here value in equation 1 we get
115 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{275 \times 10^{6}}{\frac{x}{200} }[/tex]
solve it we get
x = [tex]\frac{11}{23}[/tex]
x = 0.4782
so maximum length to which it may be stretched without causing plastic deformation is 200 + 0.4782 = 2.4782 mm
