Question

a. What is the average elastic modulus of nylon when the forces are low? Do not be surprised by the large value. It is even bigger for aluminum and steel. Explain your work.

Length (mm)    Mass (gm)
1171                     70
1176                    170
1182                    270
1188                    370
1194                    470
1212                    670
1230                    920
1245                   1170
1262                   1420
1274                   1670
1283                   1920
1288                   2170

b. Identify a practical situation where the failure of Hooke's law and the non-linear response that happened here for nylon would be apparent and have a practical impact in everyday life.
