Force applied to stretch material

Input(s)

A: Area $\left(\mathrm{m}^{2}\right)$

E: Young $\left(\mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}^{2}\right)$

$\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{a}}$: New Length (m)

$\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{b}}$: Old Length (m)

Output(s)

F: Force $(\mathrm{N})$

Formula(s)

$$ \mathrm{F}=\mathrm{A} * \mathrm{E} *\left(\frac{\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{a}}-\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{b}}}{\mathrm{L}_{\mathrm{b}}}\right) $$
