8.Mechanical Properties of Solids
easy

A steel rod has a radius of $20\,mm$ and a length of $2.0\,m$. A force of $62.8\,kN$ stretches it along its length. Young's modulus of steel is $2.0 \times 10^{11}\,N / m ^2$. The longitudinal strain produced in the wire is $..........\times 10^{-5}$

A

$24$

B

$23$

C

D

$25$

Solution

$\text {Strain}=\frac{\text { stress }}{Y}=\frac{\frac{62.8 \times 10^3}{\pi \times(0.02)^2}}{2 \times 10^{11}}$

$=\frac{62.8 \times 10^3}{3.14 \times 4 \times 10^{-4} \times 2 \times 10^{11}}$

$=2.5 \times 10^{-4}$

$=25 \times 10^{-5}$
