For the following computer problem, any appropriate software may be used. Input prompts should fully explain what is required of the user (the program should be user-friendly). The resulting output should be well labeled and self-explanatory.

Write a program that will calculate stress, strain, and modulus of elasticity for a rod of circular cross section that is loaded in tension. User input is to be rod diameter, load, original gage length, elongation, and the proportional limit for the material. Use the program to solve Problem.

Problem

For the following problem, unless noted otherwise refer to Appendices F and G for necessary mechanical properties of materials.

A .-diameter steel rod is tested in tension and elongates 0.00715 in. in a length of 8 in. under a tensile load of 6500 lb. Compute (a) the stress, (b) the strain, and (c) the modulus of elasticity, E, based on this one reading. The proportional limit of this steel is 34,000 psi.
