When a uniform wire of radius $r$ is stretched by a $2kg$ weight, the increase in its length is $2.00\, mm$. If the radius of the wire is $r/2$ and other conditions remain the same, the increase in its length is .......... $mm$

The Young's modulus of a wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is $Y$ $N/m^2$. If the length and radius are reduced to $L/2$ and $r/2,$ then its Young's modulus will be

In the given figure, two elastic rods $A$ & $B$ are rigidly joined to end supports. $A$ small mass $‘m’$ is moving with velocity $v$ between the rods. All collisions are assumed to be elastic & the surface is given to be frictionless. The time period of small mass $‘m’$ will be : [$A=$ area of cross section, $Y =$ Young’s modulus, $L=$ length of each rod ; here, an elastic rod may be treated as a spring of spring constant $\frac{{YA}}{L}$ ]
