Task

The document contains 18 questions related to stress, strain, elasticity, and material properties. Question 1 asks about normal stress in a bar with a square cross section under an axial force. Question 2 asks about elongation of a copper piece under tension. Question 3 asks about stretching of a bone supporting a weight. The remaining questions ask about stress, strain, elastic modulus, elastic limit, deformation, and properties calculated from stress-strain curves.
