For some metal alloy, a true stress of 345 MPa (50040 psi) produces a plastic true strain of 0.02. How much will a specimen of this material elongate when a true stress of 414 MPa (60050 psi) is applied if the original length is 520 mm (20.47 in.)? Assume a value of 0.22 for the strain-hardening exponent, n.

24.348mm

Explanation:

NB: I'll be attaching pictures so as to depict missing mathematical expressions or special characters which are not easily found on keyboards

K = d / €^n

Note : d represents the greek alphabet epsilion.

K = 345 / 0.02⁰.²² = 816mPa

The true strain based upon the stress of 414mPa =

€= (€/k)^1/n = (414/816)¹/⁰.²² = 0.04576

However the true relationship between true strain and length is given by

€ = ln(Li/Lo)

Making Li the subject of formula by rearranging,

Li = Lo.e^€

Li = 520e⁰.⁰⁴⁵⁷⁶

Li = 544.348mm

The amount of elongation can be calculated from

Change in L = Li - Lo = 544.348 - 520 change in L = 24.348mm.

the answer would most likely be c, because if it's a comical piece of information, it may likely not be true, if it's a site that allows anybody to edit the content, it could mean a five year old is typing the info, and if it's a tv show produced by a celeb, it may have a biased opinion.
