A piece of copper having a rectangular cross-section of $15.2 \;mm \times 19.1 \;mm$ is pulled in tenston with $44,500\; N$ force, productng only elastic deformation. Calculate the resulting strain?
Area of the copper piece:
$A=l \times b=19.1 \times 10^{-3} \times 15.2 \times 10^{-3}=2.9 \times 10^{-4} m ^{2}$
Tension force applied on the piece of copper, $F=44500 N$
Modulus of elasticity of copper, $\eta=42 \times 10^{9} N / m ^{2}$
Modulus of elasticity, $\eta=\frac{\text { Stress }}{\text { Strain }}=\frac{\frac{F}{A}}{\text { Strain }}$
$\therefore$ Strain $=\frac{F}{A \eta}$
$=\frac{44500}{2.9 \times 10^{-4} \times 42 \times 10^{9}}$
$=3.65 \times 10^{-3}$
Steel and copper wires of same length are stretched by the same weight one after the other. Young's modulus of steel and copper are $2 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2}$ and $1.2 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2}$. The ratio of increase in length
A load $W$ produces an extension of $1mm$ in a thread of radius $r.$ Now if the load is made $4W$ and radius is made $2r$ all other things remaining same, the extension will become..... $mm$
Two wires $A$ and $B$ are of same materials. Their lengths are in the ratio $1 : 2$ and diameters are in the ratio $2 : 1$ when stretched by force ${F_A}$ and ${F_B}$ respectively they get equal increase in their lengths. Then the ratio ${F_A}/{F_B}$ should be
When a certain weight is suspended from a long uniform wire, its length increases by one cm. If the same weight is suspended from another wire of the same material and length but having a diameter half of the first one then the increase in length will be ........ $cm$
The load versus elongation graph for four wires of same length and the same material is shown in figure. The thinnest wire is represented by line
