- The results of a tensile test are shown in Table 1.5.2. The test was performed on a metal specimen with a circular cross section. The diameter was 3 8 inch and the gage length (The length over which the elongation is measured) was 2 inches. a. Use the data in Table 1.5.2 to produce a table of stress and strain values. b. Plot the stress-strain data and draw a best-fit curve. c. Compute the, modulus of elasticity from the initial slope of the curve. d. Estimate the yield stress.arrow_forwardA tensile test was performed on a metal specimen having a circular cross section with a diameter of 1 2 inch. The gage length (the length over which the elongation is measured) is 2 inches. For a load 13.5 kips, the elongation was 4.6610 3 inches.
