What fraction of the load is carried by e-glass fibers


A unidirectional E-Glass fiber-epoxy composite material contains 61% by volume E-Glass fibers stressed under isostrain conditions. The E-Glass fibers have a tensile modulus of 10x106 psi, and a tensile strength of 0.35x106 psi. The epoxy matrix has a tensile modulus of 0.45x106 psi, and a tensile strength of 9.0x103 psi. What is the strength of the composite material and what fraction of the load is carried by the E-Glass fibers?
