Superman pulls on a steel post to trap a supervillain. The post has a cross-sectional area of 30cm^2 and a length of 2m. If Superman applies a force of 6X10^6N by how much is the length of the post increased?
Elongation, dL = PL/AE
dL = (6 x 10^6 x 2)/(30 x 10^-4 x 2 x 10^11)
dL = 0.02 m

A piece of steel is 15.0 cm long and has a cross-sectional area of 2.00 cm by 3.00 cm. If a 50.0 kg mass is suspended from it, by how much will it stretch?
7. A 6 ft long steel rod has a cross-sectional area of 0.08 in2. How much does the rod stretch under an axi- al tensile load of 400 lb? Report the answer in inches.
Consider a steel guitar string of initial length 2.00m and cross-sectional area A = 0.500mm^2. The Young s modulus of the steel is 2.0 times 10^11 N/m^2. How far would such a string stretch under a tension of 1500 N?
2. Muscle can generate approximately 90 N of force per square centimeter of cross-sectional area. If a biceps brachii has a cross-sectional area of 10 cm2, how much force can it exert? ANSWER FOR PROBLEM 2 = 900 N 3. Using the same force/cross-sectional area estimate as in Problem 2, and estimating the cross sectional area of your own biceps brachii how much force should the muscle be able to produce
3.How much tensile (pulling) force could be applied to an elephant tendon with a cross sectional area of 1 cm2and a length of 30cm, before it begins to fail? What if the tendon was only 15cm long? (Note that injury occurs a strain of 8%.) We expect to see the calculations and answer using the correct formulas.

Four steel rods each with a cross-sectional area of 1in 2 are embedded in a 5-in diameter light aggregate concrete cylinder. The steel has a yield strength of 36000 psi and a modulus of elasticity of 30x10n6 psi. Assume a very strong interface between the steel and the concrete causes them to experience identical deflections. A rigid plate is placed over both ends of the cylinder and a compressive axial force of 100,000 lb is applied. The stress (psi) induced...
