The Young’s modulus for steel is much more than that for rubber. For the same longitudinal strain, which one will have greater tensile stress ?
The Young’s modulus for steel is much more than that for rubber. For the same longitudinal strain, which one will have greater tensile stress ?
Young's modulus $=\frac{\text { Tensile stress }}{\text { Longitudinal strain }}$
For the same longitudinal strain, Young's modulus $\mathrm{Y}$ is proportional to tensile stress
$\therefore \quad \frac{\mathrm{Y}_{\text {steel }}}{\mathrm{Y}_{\text {rubber }}}=\frac{(\text { Stress })_{\text {steel }}}{(\text { Stress })_{\text {rubber }}}$
but $\mathrm{Y}_{\text {steel }}>\mathrm{Y}_{\text {rubber }}$
$\therefore \frac{\mathrm{Y}_{\text {steel }}}{\mathrm{Y}_{\text {rubber }}}>1$ $\therefore \frac{(\text { Stress })_{\text {steel }}}{(\text { Stress })_{\text {rubber }}}>1$ $\therefore$ (Stress) $_{\text {steel }}>$ (Stress) $_{\text {rubber }}$

Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. However wire $1$ has crosssectional area $A$ and wire $2$ has cross-section area $3A$. If the length of wire $1$ increases by $\Delta x$ on applying force $F$, how much force is needed to stretch wire $2$ by the same amount?

Two separate wires $A$ and $B$ are stretched by $2 \,mm$ and $4\, mm$ respectively, when they are subjected to a force of $2\, N$. Assume that both the wires are made up of same material and the radius of wire $B$ is 4 times that of the radius of wire $A$. The length of the wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio of $a : b$. Then $a / b$ can be expressed as $1 / x$ where $x$ is

Four identical hollow cylindrical columns of mild steel support a big structure of mass $50,000 \;kg$. The inner and outer radii of each column are $30$ and $60\; cm$ respectively. Assuming the load distribution to be uniform, calculate the compressional strain of each column.
