Use the formula Strain=Extension/original length and rearrange to give Original length=Extension/Strain. Substitute the values you have for the strain and the extended length into the equation and voila!

Formula for extension?

The formula for extension (lengthening) of a material under tensile stress is given by: Extension = Original Length x Strain = Original Length x (Final Length - Original Length) / Original Length. It represents the change in length of a material when subjected to a stretching force.


What is the difference between a stress strain curve and a load displacement curve?

a stress strain curve and a load displacement curve is pretty much the same thing, given the data is from the same specimen. its just the stress (force/area) is divided by a constant area and the strain (change in length/original length) is divided by a constant original length. therefore your curve would pretty much look the same as dividing by a constant will not change your graph. hope this explains your question


What is volumetric strain?

Volumetric strain of a deformed body is defined as the ratio of the change in volume of the body to the deformation to its original volume. If V is the original volum and dV the change in volume occurred due to the deformation, the volumetric strain ev induced is given by ev =dV/V Consider a uniform rectangular bar of length l, breadth b and depth d as shown in figure. Its volume V is given by, This means that volumetric strain of a deformed body is the sum of the linear strains in three mutually perpendicular directions.


How do you reflect a shape with a given line?

Pick a vertex of the original shape.Draw a perpendicular to the given line.Double the length of this perpendicular. The end point is the image of the original vertex.Repeat for all other vertices of the original shape.Join the vertices of the image.

What is the formula to calculate the total strain experienced by a material under a given load?

The formula to calculate total strain is: Total Strain Elastic Strain Plastic Strain. Elastic strain is the initial deformation of the material under load, while plastic strain is the permanent deformation after the material reaches its yield point.


How do you find the radius given the chord length?

If you are given a chord length of a circle, unless you are given more information about the chord, you can not determine what the radius of the circle will be. This is because the chord length in a circle can vary from a length of (essentially) 0, up to a length of double the radius (the diameter). The best you can say about the radius if given the chord length, is that the length of the radius is at least as long has half half the chord length.


What is the value of young's modulus of tungsten?

Young's modulus describes the relationship between stress (sigma) and strain (epsilon) in a material that obeys Hooke's law. That means that there is a linear elastic relationship between stress and strain (which means that for a given change in strain, there will be a linearly proportional change in internal stress). Young's modulus (E) is calculated as follows: E = sigma / epsilon Where: epsilon (strain) = change in length of sample / original length [-] sigma (stress) = force / area [N/m-2]


How do you find the length and width and the area is given?

If the area is already given, there should also be either width or length given. Do the area, divided by the length or the width. For example, the area divided by the width equal the length. Hope it helps.


What is Asthenopia?

Asthenopia, also known as eye strain, is a condition where the eyes become tired or fatigued from prolonged use, such as staring at a digital screen for extended periods. Symptoms can include eye discomfort, headaches, blurred vision, and difficulty focusing. Taking breaks, adjusting lighting, and using proper ergonomics can help alleviate asthenopia.


How do you find the height of a cuboid when the length and width is only given?

By dividing length times width into its given volume


What is the warranty period for HP laserjet printers?

I believe that my warranty on my printer was only for 90 days. Some printers will give you a year warranty. After your original warranty expires, you are given an option to purchase an extended warranty.
