Question: (a) For BCC iron, compute the radius of a tetrahedral interstitial site. (See the result of Problem 4.9.) (b) Lattice strains are imposed on iron

(a) For BCC iron, compute the radius of a tetrahedral interstitial site. (See the result of Problem 4.9.)
(b) Lattice strains are imposed on iron atoms surrounding this site when carbon atoms occupy it. Compute the approximate magnitude of this strain by taking the difference between the carbon atom radius and the site radius and then dividing this difference by the site radius?
