Assume that Young's modulus is 1.50 x 1010 N/m2 for bone and that the bone will fracture if
stress greater than 1.50 x 108 N/m2 is imposed on it. If this much force is applied
comprehensively, by how much (in mm), does the 25.0-cm-long bone shorten
A new high stiffness plastic material has a length
of 19.7 inches and a thickness of 3 mm and is being
considered for use as a bone fixation plate. When
subjected to a tensile load of 10000 N, the material
stretches to a length of 19.88 inches. Please find the width
of this material, which has a modulus of 4 GPa.
Assume that Young's modulus for bone is 1.5x10^10 N/m2 and that a
bone will fracture if more than 1.5x10^8 N/m2 is exerted. (a) What is the
maximum force that can be exerted on the femur bone in the leg if it has a
minimum effective diameter of 2.50 cm? (b) If a force of this magnitude is
applied compressively, by how much does the 25.0-cm-long-bone shorten?
