Question

To determine the nominal or engineering stress and strain experienced by a specimen of a material while it is subjected to a tension test, and to be able to read important values from a conventional stress-strain diagram obtained from the test.
A tension test is being conducted on a steel-rod specimen with a gauge length of L0=2 in and initial diameter of d0=0.5 in. Data were collected to form the conventional stress-strain diagram as shown. From the diagram, f = 73.0 ksi , e = 101.0 ksi g=83.0ksi, and h=0.15in/in

Part A - Nominal or engineering strain in the rod
Assuming that the strain remains constant throughout the region between the gauge points, determine the nominal strain ε experienced by the rod if it is elongated to L = 2.5 in .
Express the nominal strain in inches per inch to three significant figures.
 
Part B - Nominal or engineering stress in the specimen
Assuming that the stress is constant over the cross-sectional area and if the tension force used is P = 8.0 kips , find the nominal stress experienced by the rod.
Express the nominal stress in kilopounds per square inch to three significant figures.
 
Part C - Force needed to reach the ultimate stress
Determine the force P needed to reach the ultimate stress in the steel-rod specimen.
Express the force in kips to three significant figures.
