When a weight of $10\, kg$ is suspended from a copper wire of length $3$ metres and diameter $0.4\, mm,$ its length increases by $2.4\, cm$. If the diameter of the wire is doubled, then the extension in its length will be ........ $cm$
$9.6$
$4.8 $
$1.2$
$0.6$
A fixed volume of iron is drawn into a wire of length $L.$ The extension $x$ produced in this wire by a constant force $F$ is proportional to
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?
If the ratio of lengths, radii and Young's moduli of steel and brass wires in the figure are $a, b$ and $c$ respectively, then the corresponding ratio of increase in their lengths is
A uniform heavy rod of mass $20\,kg$. Cross sectional area $0.4\,m ^{2}$ and length $20\,m$ is hanging from a fixed support. Neglecting the lateral contraction, the elongation in the rod due to its own weight is $x \times 10^{-9} m$. The value of $x$ is
(Given. Young's modulus $Y =2 \times 10^{11} Nm ^{-2}$ અને $\left.g=10\, ms ^{-2}\right)$
Figure shows the strain-stress curve for a given material. What are $(a)$ Young’s modulus and $(b)$ approximate yield strength for this material?
