Spidermans webbing has a cross sectional area of a 10-6 m2


Spiderman's webbing has a cross sectional area of A = 10^-6 m^2. The Young's modulus of the silk is Y = 200 x 10^10 Pa, and has a breaking strength of 1 x 10^9 Pa. Suppose Spiderman, of mass m = 80 kg, is swinging along the end of a web-rope of length
L = 30m.

1. How much force can be applied to the spiderman web-rope before it breaks?

2. How far will it have stretched before breaking?
