     Which of the following about hardness is true?  It reflects a material\'s resistance to local plastic deformation  It is measured using the tensile testing  A larger indent means higher hardness  The yield strength of a material can be estimated from the hardness value  A specimen of copper (elastic modulus 110 GPa) having a rectangular cross section 15.2 mm times 19.1 mm is pulled in tension with 44, 500 N force, producing only elastic deformation. Calculate the resulting strain.  1.39  0.139  0.0139  0.00139  A cylindrical specimen of a nickel alloy having an elastic modulus of 207 GPa and an original diameter of 10.2 mm experiences only elastic deformation when a tensile load of 8900 N is applied. Compute the original length of the specimen if the maximum allowable elongation is 0.25 mm.  475 mm  350 mm  35 mm00.58 mm 
  
  Solution
A.option a...resistent to indention
B.strain=p/aE=44500/(15.1*19.1*110*1000)=0.00139
C.e=pl/aE=475.1279
