(a) Compute the maximum longitudinal force that may be supported by a bone before breaking, given that the compressive stress at which bone breaks is 2.00 10⁸ N/m². Treat the bone as a solid cylinder of radius 1.48 cm.

(b) Young's modulus for bone is 2.00 10¹⁰ N/m². Estimate the strain in the bone just before breaking.
