Young's modulus of elasticity of material depends upon
Nature of material
Force applied
Shape and size of body
All of these
The following four wires of length $L$ and radius $r$ are made of the same material. Which of these will have the largest extension, when the same tension is applied?
A rod of length $1.05\; m$ having negligible mass is supported at its ends by two wires of steel (wire $A$) and aluminium (wire $B$) of equal lengths as shown in Figure. The cross-sectional areas of wires $A$ and $B$ are $1.0\; mm ^{2}$ and $2.0\; mm ^{2}$. respectively. At what point along the rod should a mass $m$ be suspended in order to produce $(a)$ equal stresses and $(b)$ equal strains in both steel and alumintum wires.
Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. The first wire has cross-sectional area $A$ and the second wire has cross-sectional area $3A$. If the length of the first wire is increased by $\Delta l$ on applying a force $F$, how much force is needed to stretch the second wire by the same amount?
A copper wire of length $2.2 \;m$ and a steel wire of length $1.6\; m ,$ both of diameter $3.0 \;mm ,$ are connected end to end. When stretched by a load, the net elongation is found to be $0.70 \;mm$. Obtain the load applied in $N$.
If the ratio of diameters, lengths and Young's modulus of steel and copper wires shown in the figure are $p, q$ and $s$ respectively, then the corresponding ratio of increase in their lengths would be
