Question

The figure shows the stress-strain curve for a material. The scale of the stress axis is set by s 330, in units of 106 N/m2. What are (a) the Youngs modulus and (b) the approximate yield strength for this material? 0.0080 0.016 Strain (a) Number Units (b) Number Units

Answer #1

(a)

The Young's modulus is the ratio of stress to strain.So we can write

Y=\frac{Stress}{Strain} \\\\\Rightarrow Y=\frac{330\times 10^{6}}{0.016} \\\\\Rightarrow Y=2.06\times 10^{10} N/m^{2}

(b) A yield strength is the material property defined as the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically.So from the figure we can say that the yield strength in this case is 330 x 106 N/m2 .
