A 1.6 x 10-3-kg house spider is hangingvertically by a thread that has a Young's modulusof 5.0 x 109 N/m2 and aradius of 12 x 10-6 m. Suppose thata 69-kg person is hanging vertically on an aluminum (Young'smodulus 6.9 x 1010 N/m2) wire. What isthe radius of the wire that would exhibit the same strain as thespider's thread, when the thread is stressed by the full weight ofthe spider?
