Question

A 1.25 m long cable has a diameter 3.50 mm with a Young’s Modulus, E, of 9.75 x 109 N/m2 . When the wire is placed under tension, it experiences a stress of 202.52 x 106 N/m2 , the length of the cable extends by 36.35 mm. Calculate the force that the cable experiences under tension and the strain energy density (U/V) due to deformation. Give your answers in newtons (N) to 2 decimal places for the force; and in joules per cubic metre (J/m3 ) for the strain energy density to 2 decimal places. Assume the cable is solid and the material is homogeneous.
