Find the applied load assuming rod is in uniaxial tension


A strain gauge that has a nominal resistance of 350 ohms and a gauge factor of 1.8 is mounted in an equal-arm bridge, which is balanced at a zero applied strain condition. The gauge is mounted on a 1-cm^2 aluminum rod, with E = 70 GPa. The gauge senses axial strain. The bridge output is 1 mV for a bridge input of 5V. What is the applied load, assuming the rod is in uniaxial tension?
