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 uniform rod of mass $m$, length $L$, area of cross-section $A$ and Young's modulus $Y$ hangs from the ceiling. Its elongation under its own weight will be
A metallic rod having area of cross section $A$, Young’s modulus $Y$, coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha $ and length $L$ tied with two strong pillars. If the rod is heated through a temperature $t\,^oC$ then how much force is produced in rod ?
An equilateral triangle $ABC$ is formed by two copper rods $AB$ and $BC$ and one is aluminium rod which heated in such a way that temperature of each rod increases by $\Delta T$. Find change in the angle $\angle {ABC}$. (Coefficient of linear expansion for copper is $\alpha _1$ and for aluminium is $\alpha _2$).
A stress of $1.5\,kg.wt/mm^2$ is applied to a wire of Young's modulus $5 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$ . The percentage increase in its length is
A mild steel wire of length $1.0 \;m$ and cross-sectional area $0.50 \times 10^{-2} \;cm ^{2}$ is stretched, well within its elastic limit, horizontally between two pillars. A mass of $100 \;g$ is suspended from the mid-point of the wire. Calculate the depression at the midpoint.
