When a stress of $10^8\,Nm^{-2}$ is applied to a suspended wire, its length increases by $1 \,mm$. Calculate Young’s modulus of wire.

Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D

Solution

$\mathrm{Y}=\frac{\mathrm{F} / \mathrm{A}}{\Delta \mathrm{L} / \mathrm{L}}=\frac{1 \times 10^{8}}{10^{-3}}=10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}$
