$A$ metal rod of length $L$ and cross-sectional area $A$ is heated through $T^{\circ} C$. What is the force required to prevent the expansion of the rod lengthwise? ($Y=$ Young's modulus of the material of the rod,$\alpha=$ coefficient of linear expansion of the rod.)

What is the percentage increase in length of a wire of diameter $2.5 \,mm$,stretched by a force of $100 \,kg$ wt? (Young's modulus of elasticity of wire $= 12.5 \times 10^{11} \,dyne/cm^2$)

Two wires of equal lengths are made of the same material. Wire $A$ has a diameter that is twice as that of wire $B$. If identical weights are suspended from the ends of these wires,the increase in length is

$A$ metal wire of length $L_1$ and area of cross-section $A$ is attached to a rigid support. Another metal wire of length $L_2$ and of the same cross-sectional area is attached to the free end of the first wire. $A$ body of mass $M$ is then suspended from the free end of the second wire. If $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ are the Young's moduli of the wires respectively,the effective force constant of the system of the two wires is:

$A$ block of mass $2 \ kg$ is tied to one end of a $2 \ m$ long metal wire of $1.0 \ mm^2$ area of cross-section and rotated in a vertical circle such that the tension in the wire is zero at the highest point. If the maximum elongation in the wire is $2 \ mm$, the Young's modulus of the metal is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ ms^{-2}$)

Young's modulus of elasticity of a material depends upon
