Calculate the strain the stress

Reference no: EM13536957

After a fall, a 96 kg rock climber finds himself dangling from the end of a rope that had been 17 m long and 9.9 mm in diameter but has stretched by 3.1 cm. For the rope, calculate (a) the strain, (b) the stress, and (c) the Young's modulus.
