Question

Transcribed Image Text:16
Carbon nanotubes are one of the strongest materials known to engineers. They have an elastic modulus of 1.1 TPa (1TPa = 10¹2 Pa).
If a carbon nanotube has a diameter of 15 nm determine the engineering stress, in GPa, sustained by the nanotube when subjected to a tensile
load of 4 µN along the length of the tube. Assume that the entire cross-sectional area of the nanotube is load bearing.
* = 3.14.
Enter the answer rounded to one place after the decimal (xx.x). Do not enter the units.
Note: This answer will be required in the next question so please note this down.
