(a) The stress in the post is 1,568,000 N/m²
(b) The strain in the post is 7.61 x 10⁻⁶
(c) The change in the post’s length when the load is applied is 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m.
<h3>Area of the steel post</h3>
A = πd²/4
where;
d is the diameter
A = π(0.25²)/4 = 0.05 m²
<h3>Stress on the steel post</h3>
σ = F/A
σ = mg/A
where;
- m is mass supported by the steel
- g is acceleration due to gravity
- A is the area of the steel post
σ = (8000 x 9.8)/(0.05)
σ = 1,568,000 N/m²
<h3>Strain of the post</h3>
E = stress / strain
where;
- E is Young's modulus of steel = 206 Gpa
strain = stress/E
strain = (1,568,000) / (206 x 10⁹)
strain = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶
<h3>Change in length of the steel post</h3>
strain = ΔL/L
where;
- ΔL is change in length
- L is original length
ΔL = 7.61 x 10⁻⁶ x 2.5
ΔL = 1.9 x 10⁻⁵ m

The sun is the mother star of the solar system, which only emits light to half of the planet, while the other part is always dark.
The sun emits light towards the earth, which dominates all life on earth. The movements of the Moon around the Earth and of the Earth around the Sun are complex. Movements of rotation around their own axes are superimposed on movements of orbital translation. The Earth and the Moon rotate around their own axes: This is rotation.
They are positive and remain inside the nucleus.
Potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases.
Potential energy is related to the height, since the wagon is going downhill, height decreases and potential energy decreases.
Kinetic energy is related to the speed, since the wagon is speeding up, kinetic energy increases.
