You hang a heavy ball with a mass of 42 kg from a silver rod 2.7 m long by 1.9 mm by 2.6 mm. You measure the stretch of the rod, and find that the rod stretched 0.002902 m. Using these experimental data, what value of Young's modulus do you get

    cross sectional area A = 1.9 x 2.6 x 10⁻⁶ m²

    = 4.94 x 10⁻⁶ m²

    stress = 42 x 9.8 / 4.94 x 10⁻⁶

    = 83.32 x 10⁶ N/m²

    strain =.002902 / 2.7

    = 1.075 x 10⁻³

    Young's modulus = stress / strain

    = 83.32 x 10⁶ / 1.075 x 10⁻³

    = 77.5 x 10⁹ N/m²
