A tensile load of 150 kN is applied to a round metal bar with a diameter of 16 mm and a gage length of 80 mm. Under this load the bar elastically deforms so that the gage length increases to 80.1192 mm and the diameter decreases to 15.89 mm. Determine the modulus of elasticity (in MPa) and Poisson's ratio for this metal.
