A metal wire of length $L_1$ and area of cross section $A$ is attached to a rigid support. Another metal wire of length $L_2$ and of the same cross sectional area is attached to the free end of the first wire. A body of mass $M$ is then suspended from the free end of the second wire. If $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ are the Youngs moduli of the wires respectively, the effective force constant of the system of two wires is :

There are two wires of same material and same length while the diameter of second wire is $2$ times the diameter of first wire, then ratio of extension produced in the wires by applying same load will be 

A horizontal steel railroad track has a length of $100 \,m$, when the temperature is $25^{\circ} C$. The track is constrained from expanding or bending. The stress on the track on a hot summer day, when the temperature is $40^{\circ} C$ is ............. $\times 10^7\,Pa$ (Note : The linear coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is $1.1 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ} C$ and the Young's modulus of steel is $2 \times 10^{11} \,Pa$ )
