This graph shows three distinct lines. The first line is solid red and is labeled B equals 1, while the second line is solid green and is labeled B equals 10. Finally, the third line is solid blue and is labeled B equals 100. The vertical axis of this graph ranges from 0 to 100 and represents Force (kilonewtons) while the horizontal axis of this graph ranges from 0 to 120 and represents Deflection (millimeters). All three lines run one on top of the other as they curve upward from the points of zero on the vertical and horizontal axes until the blue line surpasses the others at the points of 69 on the vertical axis and 60 on the horizontal axis where it continues its climb to the points of 84 on the vertical axis and 109 on the horizontal axis. From there the blue line dips down to the points of 78 on the vertical axis and 114 on the horizontal axis where it spikes again, off the graph at the points of 70 on the vertical axis and 120 on the horizontal axis. The red line shallows out from the point it breaks from the blue line and peaks at the points of 74 on the vertical axis and 82 on the horizontal axis. From there it slopes downward and unevenly plateaus until it leaves the graph at the points of 64 on the vertical axis and 120 on the horizontal axis. From the point at which the green line breaks from the blue line, it climbs slightly more to peak at the points of 76 on the vertical axis and 78 on the horizontal axis. From there the green line slopes downward, and plateaus at the points of 64 on the vertical axis and 92 on the horizontal axis before it drops off again where it runs off the graph at the points of 60 on the vertical axis and 120 on the horizontal axis.
