A man with a mass of 75.2 kg stands on one foot. His femur has a cross-sectional area of 8.00 cm^2 and an uncompressed length 50.5 cm. Young's modulus for compression of the human femur is 9.40 x 10^9 N/m^2. How much shorter is the femur when the man stands on one foot? _________cm What is the fractional length change of the femur when the person moves from standing on two feet to standing on one foot?

Mechanical Properties of Solids

There are three types of matter- solid, liquid and gas. Out of them, solids have a rigid shaped and size. The intermolecular forces of attractions in solids are greatest. Mechanical properties are the physical properties of a material which it shows, when it is provided with certain amount of force or load. These properties are to be kept in mind for various purposes. When a force is applied to an object, the object may or may not get deformed depending upon its elastic property. But every time the object develops a restoring force against the force applied. This is commonly known as stress. If the object changes its dimensions due to the force applied it develops strain ( which is the ratio of change in dimension to the original dimension).
