8.Mechanical Properties of Solids
medium
The area of cross-section of a wire of length $1.1$ metre is $1$ $mm^2$. It is loaded with $1 \,kg.$ If Young's modulus of copper is $1.1 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2}$, then the increase in length will be ......... $mm$ (If $g = 10\,m/{s^2})$
A
$0.01$
B
$0.075 $
C
$0.1$
D
$0. 15$
Solution
(c) $l = \frac{{mgL}}{{AY}} = \frac{{1 \times 10 \times 1.1}}{{1.1 \times {{10}^{11}} \times {{10}^{ – 6}}}}m = 0.1\;mm$
