8.Mechanical Properties of Solids
hard

Each of three blocks $P$, $Q$ and $R$ shown in figure has a mass of $3 \mathrm{~kg}$. Each of the wire $A$ and $B$ has cross-sectional area $0.005 \mathrm{~cm}^2$ and Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$. Neglecting friction, the longitudinal strain on wire $B$ is____________ $\times 10^{-4}$. $\left(\right.$ Take $\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2$ )

A

$7$

B

$5$

C

$4$

D

$2$

Solution

$ a=\frac{10}{3} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^2 $

$ 30-T_1=3 \times a $

$ T_1=20 \mathrm{~N} $

$ \text { strain }=\frac{\text { stress }}{Y} $

$ =2 \times 10^{-4}$
