You
are given a force of 50 Newtons and an
area of 5 square millimeters. The problem requires you to find the stress in
mega Newton per square millimeters. Before anything else, make sure to change
the units in its desired form. 50 N is equal to 50*10^-6 mega Newton. The equation
of stress is force over area. We have
solution of,
S = F/A
S = 50*10^-6
MN/5mm2
S =
1*10^-5 MN/mm2
The stress produced
for a force of 50N and 5mm2 is 1*10^-5 MN/mm2.
