$A$ metal rod of cross-sectional area $3 \times 10^{-6} \,m^{2}$ is suspended vertically from one end and has a length of $0.4 \,m$ at $100^{\circ} C$. The rod is cooled to $0^{\circ} C$, but prevented from contracting by attaching a mass '$m$' at the lower end. Find the value of '$m$'. (Given: $Y = 10^{11} \,N/m^{2}$, coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = 10^{-5} /K$, $g = 10 \,m/s^{2}$) (in $\,kg$)

$A$ steel wire and a copper wire are joined end to end having equal cross-sections. The elongation of the two wires is found to be equal under tension. What is the ratio of the length of the steel wire to the length of the copper wire? (Young's modulus of steel $= 2.0 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$ and Young's modulus of copper $= 1.1 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$)

$A$ piece of copper having a rectangular cross-section of $15.2 \; mm \times 19.1 \; mm$ is pulled in tension with $44,500 \; N$ force,producing only elastic deformation. Calculate the resulting strain.

The Young's modulus of a rubber string $8\, cm$ long and density $1.5\, kg/m^3$ is $5 \times 10^8\, N/m^2$. If it is suspended from the ceiling in a room,the increase in length due to its own weight will be:

Two rods of different materials having coefficients of linear expansion $\alpha_1, \alpha_2$ and Young's moduli $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ respectively are fixed between two rigid massive walls. The rods are heated such that they undergo the same increase in temperature. There is no bending of rods. If $\alpha_1 : \alpha_2 = 2 : 3$,and the thermal stresses developed in the two rods are equal,then the ratio $Y_1 : Y_2$ is equal to:
