OCR H557

Suggested PAG activity — PAG 2 – Investigating properties of materials / example: Young modulus

OCR requires PAG 2 material-measurement techniques; determining Young modulus for a metal is the specification example, while centres may use another suitably mapped activity.

Determining the Young modulus of a wire

Measure a wire with a micrometer, load and unload it, then determine Young modulus from a stress–strain graph.

This simulation supports preparation and data-analysis practice. It does not replace carrying out real practical work.
