What is elasticity ? Most people might be asking themselves what is elasticity don’t frustrate yourself elasticity is simply the ability in which the farthest in which anything can be either bent, stretched, or even squashed. In my case I am trying to figure out what is the elasticity of nylon fishing strings so how much can a nylon fishing string be stretched. According to my research a nylon fishing string can be stretched up to five in.

It is said in my research that the nylon fishing strings have very little elasticity therefore it is said that the nylon fishing strings will break after 3lbs of weight. Personally I predict that the nylon fishing strings can hold at least up to 25lbs. After all they are used for fishing and not all fish are under or exactly 3lbs.But all in all about elasticity is the ability to stretch an item and in my project the elasticity told in my research on the internet is only five in.The elasticity in my strings as told before is very little the strings can only be stretched up to five inches so as said in my research the strings will pop after 3lbs of weight is added.But I am gonna prove that wrong not every fish is less then 3lbs or exactly 3lbs.

Inconclusion, I predict that the nylon fishing wires can atleast hold up to 25 lbs.From here my project begins now knowing what elasticity is.

What is tension? As I mentioned before don’t frustrate yourself if you don’t know what tension is. As before I will explain it is simply the degree to which something such as a wire, string, thread, or a muscle is stretched. It is basically the same thing in comparison to elasticity. In this case in which it is how strong are nylon fishing wires this is very important in my project.

The amount of tension in my fishing wires will determine how much time it will take for the nylon fishing strings to pop after the weight is added. So as you have might noticed the tension of the nylon fishing wires is very important in my project. So in my research there is much tension when you stretch the nylon fishing strings and the fact that the tension builds up and so much tension in one little string is eventually gonna cause the strings to pop.

The tension of the strings in my project cant be told in the position in which I have not started my project.But as I start the tension in the strings will be recorded in the research I have done it is not said how much tension is in the strings. Throughout my project I will find the tension in my strings.

Inconclusion,the amount of tension in my project is very important in my project.This will determine how much can be added before the strings pop. What are forces? The idea behind forces is acutely very simple now the idea is to see the forces acting in my case on the strings. So as the tension builds up in my strings as I test the elasticity we are turning from potential energy to kinetic energy. The more I stretch the strings the more the strings are stretched the more kinetic energy the strings gain.

So the forces acting on my strings are potential to kinetic energy and the strings are building up tension and I’m pushing the strings elasticity which will cause them to break very soon.So as I repeatedly pull the strings the tension adds up and it forces the strings elasticity to add up and soon they’ll pop and it will be recorded.

As far as I am in my research it is known that the forces acting on the strings arrem causing them to break and therefore they can only hold up to 3lbs.Also, since the tension is building up in the strings its causing them to pop slowly and but the fact that the forces are acting on the strings.So by the forces acting on the strings and the tension building upits now causing the strings to pop rapidly.

Inconclusion,after a while the tension and forces build up causing the strings to rapidly pop after 3lbs of weight is added to the strings.

Applications The way you can apply this to your daily life many people are daily fisherman and fish for a living. So now fisherman are aware that nylon fishing wires are not exactly right to fish because as I say again not every fish in the sea is exactly 3lbs or less.

So now it is known that nylon fishing wires are not exactly the strings fishermen want to use if they want to catch big fish over the weight limit of 3lbs.Now many fisherman go out into the sea hoping to catch enormous fish not fish under 3lbs or exactly 3lbs so honestly when I go fishing with friends and family we try and catch fish at least over 10lbs.

As for my advice use steel fishing wires and not nylon because according to my research the nylon fishing wires won’t hold the weight of a normal sized fish. As for steel fishing wires they will hold the weight of a very large fish.Now if you are to want to hang ornaments around your house now to not show much of steel I would recommend to use nylon fishing wires they are very hard to recognize and will tie in with any furniture.

Inconclusion,nylon fishing wires are very hard to use when fishing for large fish.But again to hang ornaments around the house they are very useful in many ways and blend in.

Problem Statement:How many pounds can nylon fishing wires hold?

Hypothesis:It is hypothesised that the nylon fishing wires will hold only up to 50lbs.
