On the X-axis

We must calculate the Sectional Area (CSA)

2 types of CSA to find

CSA of a Rectangle

CSA of a Circle

A YIELD STRENGTH or YIELD POINT is the material property defined as the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically.

DEFORMATION is when a material is in the process of deforming or distorting.

PLASTIC DEFORMATION is when a piece of properties have been changed.

PROPORTIONALLY when thing moves up at an even pace.

ULTIMATE TENSILE STRENGTH (UTS) is when a piece reaches the most tension it can take before breaking. Anymore tension and it will break.

FRACTURE to break.

Is to find the Yield Point on the graph when it isnt clear to see
