8.Mechanical Properties of Solids
easy
A wire of length $L,$ area of cross section $A$ is hanging from a fixed support. The length of the wire changes to $L_{1}$ when mass $M$ is suspended from its free end. The expression for Young's modulus is
A
$\frac{ MgL }{ A \left( L _{1}- L \right)}$
B
$\frac{ MgL _{1}}{ AL }$
C
$\frac{ Mg \left( L _{1}- L \right)}{ AL }$
D
$\frac{ MgL }{ AL _{1}}$
(NEET-2020)
Solution
$Y=\frac{F L }{A \Delta L}=\frac{M g L}{A\left(L_{1}-L\right)}$
