Which of the following curve represents the correctly distribution of elongation $(y)$ along heavy rod under its own weight $L \rightarrow$ length of rod, $x \rightarrow$ distance of point from lower end?
The edge of an aluminium cube is $10\; cm$ long. One face of the cube is firmly fixed to a vertical wall. A mass of $100 \;kg$ is then attached to the opposite face of the cube. The shear modulus of aluminium is $25\; GPa$. What is the vertical deflection of this face?
On increasing the length by $0.5\, mm$ in a steel wire of length $2\, m$ and area of cross-section $2\,m{m^2}$, the force required is $[Y$ for steel$ = 2.2 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2}]$
According to Hook’s law of elasticity, if stress is increased, the ratio of stress to strain
The following four wires are made of the same material. Which of these will have the largest extension when the same tension is applied ?
A steel wire of length $4.7\; m$ and cross-sectional area $3.0 \times 10^{-5}\; m ^{2}$ stretches by the same amount as a copper wire of length $3.5\; m$ and cross-sectional area of $4.0 \times 10^{-5} \;m ^{2}$ under a given load. What is the ratio of the Young's modulus of steel to that of copper?
