Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equation that relates elongation of a fastener to the tensile force applied is given by the formula d = Fl/AE, where d is the elongation, F is the tensile force, A is the cross-sectional area of the fastener, E is the modulus of elasticity. Option B is incorrect as it gives the equation for pressure, option C and D are incorrect as they give the equations for torque and work respectively.
