Calculation:
Initial Thickness Initial Width Initial Length =1.10mm =3.18mm =34.28mm After Thickness = 0.5mm After Width After Length = 2.9mm = 43.70mm

Area

= (3.18 x 10-3) x (1.10 x 10-3) = 3.498x10-6 m2

Stress, = F/A = 0.1x103 / 3.498x10-6 = 28.58776444 Mpa

Strain, = L/Lo = (0.05 x 10-3)/ (34.28x 10-3) =0.00145857643

Actual characteristic of Mild Steel For the Stress (Pa) Vs Strain (Elastic Region) graph we have discovered that the relation between the stress and strain is linear. The slope of the graph stress vs. strain (elastic region) is called Young's modulus or modulus of elasticity and it is denoted by the letter E. Therefore in this linear elastic region we have = E The specimen that we used for this experiment is mild steel and the actual characteristic of the Mild steel is the most common form of steel as its price is relatively low while it provides material properties that are acceptable for many applications. For low carbon steel, it contains approximately 0.050.15% carbon and mild steel contains 0.16 0.29%carbon, therefore it is neither brittle nor ductile. Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength, however it is cheap and malleable surface hardness can be increased through carburizing. It is often used when large amount of steel is needed, for example as structural steel. The density of mild steel is 7,861.093 kg/m (0.284 lb/in), the tensile strength of

410Mpa, the tensile strength is a maximum of 500 MPa (73,000 psi) and the Young's modulus is 210,000 MPa (30,000,000 psi). The elastic curve

As we know from the Graph above, the slope or the gradient of the curve is showing the value of the youngs modulus of the mild steel in our experiment. It is proven by the formula of

= E
Where the youngs modulus is denoted by E. It is given that Y=21001X that leads to the youngs modulus of the mild steel of the experiment that is 21001 Mpa.The 0.2% offset have been taken into consideration and it seems like it does not give any differences with the yield strength value that we have obtain from the graph. So we ignore the differences between the ultimate yield strength and the yield strength of the mild steel because the 0.2 % offset is really small. The yield strength obataion from the graphs is 200.11435 Mpa.
