14.

The modulus of elasticity, E, for this material will be approximately:

A) 10.5 x 106 psi
B) 14.3 x 106 psi
C) None of the choices are within 10% of the correct result
D) 29.2 x 106 psi
E) 8.1 x 106 psi

15.

The yield stress for this material based on the 0.2% offset method will be equal to:

A) None of the choices are within 10% of the correct result.
B) 65 ksi
C) 74 ksi
D) 59 ksi
E) 69 ksi

Explanation / Answer

13. D)74 ksi

From the table and graph we can see that maximum stress reached is 74 ksi ,and ultimate stress is the maximum tensile stress attained.

14. A) 10.5 x 106 psi

Modulus of elasticity = slope of the curve in linearly straight region = ( 11.6 - 0 )ksi / [( 1.1 - 0 )*(10^(-3))]

= 10.5 x 106 psi

15. E) 69 ksi

By careful observation we see straight line drawn parallel to straight line portion of stress-strain curve and passing through strain = 0.002 cuts the curve at 69 ksi.
