8.Mechanical Properties of Solids
easy
A wire of area of cross-section $10^{-6}\,m^2$ is increased in length by $0.1\%$. The tension produced is $1000\, N$. The Young's modulus of wire is
A
$10^{12}\, N/m^2$
B
$10^{11}\, N/m^2$
C
$10^{10}\, N/m^2$
D
$10^{9}\, N/m^2$
Solution
$Y = \frac{{FL}}{{Al}} = \frac{{1000 \times 100}}{{{{10}^{ – 6}} \times 0.1}} = {10^{12}}\,N/{m^2}$
