In steel,the Young's modulus and the strain at the breaking point are $2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ and $0.15$ respectively. The stress at the breaking point for steel is therefore:

  • A
    $1.33 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$
  • B
    $1.33 \times 10^{12} \, N/m^2$
  • C
    $7.5 \times 10^{-13} \, N/m^2$
  • D
    $3 \times 10^{10} \, N/m^2$
