Army , I was just referring to you saying "degrees of "elongation" (crappy expression sorry - but you know what I mean)"....because it more accurately describes the physics than ' stretching' which so many used to call it.... so I am glad you use it.
At some level on tech discussions it does help to have standardized nomenclature to help get to the actual problems as efficiently as we hope to...
If it helps... visualize the chain laid out straight on a table.. so it is linear in its increased length... does that help ? LOL
