ELASTIC DEFORMATION AND POISSON’S RATIO E 45 – Materials‚ Friday 8:00 am September 21‚ 2012 Due: October 19‚ 2012 Abstract A tensile test was performed on a 4140 steel sample and the axial and transverse strains were measured. Data points were collected at incremental loads and graphed to determine the elastic modulus (30.4 x 106). Poisson’s ratio was also calculated from the dataset and determined to be 0.29. These experimental values agree closely (within

overall demand for iPods. Price elasticity is a tool designed to identify the overall change in demand or supply of a product compared to the overall movement of price. For the sake of this paper‚ we will focus on the overall change in demand from consumers. Elasticity is calculated by creating a ratio of the percentage change in demand of a good compared to the percentage change in price. If the percentage change in demand is greater than the percentage change in price‚ the product would have a

Let’s start with the basics. Aside from additives such as ethanol‚ which is made from corn‚ the gasoline and diesel fuel commonly used today derive from the same source--crude oil. Although they share the same parentage (just like motor oil‚ some plastics‚ and Velveeta)‚ they have very different properties. Gasoline is often thought of as being a single chemical‚ but it’s actually a complex mixture of hydrocarbons that generally have 4 to 12 carbon atoms in their molecules. In the case of gasoline

There are several examples that come to mind when I think of price elasticity. Included in my list are fuel‚ cigarettes‚ electricity‚ and toilet paper. Price elasticity means that the behaviors of supply and demand are not affected when the price of that particular item rises (changes). Our local power companies experience price elasticity on the energy that we demand‚ when they continually raise prices but the amount of consumer usage is unaffected. In some parts of the country their may
