Answer

$E= 99.8 GPa $

Work Step by Step

Given: cylindrical specimen with diameter of 10.0 mm tensile force of 1500 N that produces an elastic reduction in diameter of $6.7 \times 10^{-4} mm$ Required: elastic modulus if Poisson's ratio is 0.35 Solution: Using a combination of Equations 6.1 and 6.5: $E = \frac{σ}{ε_{z}} = \frac{F}{A_{0}ε_{z}} = \frac{F}{ε_{z}π(\frac{d_{0}}{2})^{2}} = \frac{4F}{ε_{z}πd_{0}^{2}}$ Using Equation 6.8 and considering that $ε_{x} = \frac{Δd}{d_{0}}$, we find: $ε_{z} = - \frac{ε_{x}}{v} = - \frac{Δd}{d_{0}v}$ Substituting this expression for $ε_{z}$: $E= \frac{4F}{ε_{z}πd_{0}^{2}} = \frac{4Fv}{πd_{0}Δd} = \frac{(4)(1500 N)(0.35)}{(π)(10 \times 10^{-3} m)(6.7 \times 10^{-7} m)} = 9.98 \times 10^{10} Pa = 99.8 GPa $
