Though not pressure, this quantity is measured in Pascals, although materials like diamond are typically measured in giga Pascals due to their large value.
Though not pressure, this quantity is measured in Pascals, although materials like diamond are typically measured in giga Pascals due to their large value. It can be calculated by dividing the force applied to an object per cross-sectional area by the change in length over the original length. Alternatively, it can be considered the ratio of the tensile stress over the tensile strain of an object. FTP, identify this measure of a material's stiffness, abbreviated Y, and named for an English physicist more famous for his double-slit experiment.
