I have a question regarding finding the Young’s modulus of a rod by loading a weight to the end and measuring the change in displacement.
The experiment is part of my advanced higher physics project on Young’s modulus however it is the only experiment that I’m doing that the book “Tyler” does not cover, and so I am slightly confused as to how I actually derive the relationship through this method.
I know it isn’t a great set up but it’s all I can do with the equipment I have.
So my question is how do I calculate it via this method?
Thanks
