Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Diameter of Rod of Cotter Joint - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of Rod of Cotter Joint is defined as the length of the longest chord passing across the rod of a cotter joint end.
Load on Cotter Joint - (Measured in Newton) - Load on cotter joint is basically the amount of load/force any part or joint, can bear or is acted upon or exerts.
Tensile Stress in Cotter Joint Rod - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile Stress in Cotter Joint Rod is the amount of stress generated into the rod under consideration due to the tensile force onto it.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load on Cotter Joint: 50000 Newton --> 50000 Newton No Conversion Required
Tensile Stress in Cotter Joint Rod: 50 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 50000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
