Default Tensile Strength Question Continued

okay, got pounds per Square Inch and elongation differences and the failure
sequence in my noodle.

For simplicity, let's use 120,000 and 80,000 psi numbers.

So if the 120,000 # piece is .667 square inches
and the 80,000# piece is 1.0 square inch,,,are the elongations the same???

Thanks, Dick
