$A$ meter scale of mass $m$,Young's modulus $Y$,and cross-sectional area $A$ is hung vertically from the ceiling at the zero mark. The separation between the $30\ cm$ and $70\ cm$ marks will be: (Assume $\frac{mg}{AY}$ is dimensionless)

  • A
    $30\frac{mg}{AY}\ cm + 40\ cm$
  • B
    $20\frac{mg}{AY}\ cm + 40\ cm$
  • C
    $50\frac{mg}{AY}\ cm + 40\ cm$
  • D
    $40\frac{mg}{AY}\ cm + 40\ cm$

$A$ rod of uniform cross-sectional area $A$ and length $L$ has a weight $W$. It is suspended vertically from a fixed support. If Young's modulus for the rod is $Y$,then the elongation produced in the rod due to its own weight is:

What is the effect of change in temperature on the Young's modulus?

Two wires of diameter $0.25 \; cm,$ one made of steel and the other made of brass,are loaded as shown in the figure. The unloaded length of the steel wire is $1.5 \; m$ and that of the brass wire is $1.0 \; m.$ Compute the elongations of the steel and the brass wires. (Given: Young's modulus of steel $Y_s = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \; Pa,$ Young's modulus of brass $Y_b = 0.91 \times 10^{11} \; Pa$)

What should be the diameter of a copper wire $(Y=12 \times 10^{10} \text{ N/m}^2)$ of length $5 \text{ m}$ to produce the same elongation produced by a $5 \text{ m}$ long aluminium wire $(Y=7 \times 10^{10} \text{ N/m}^2)$ of diameter $3 \text{ mm}$ with the same $40 \text{ kg}$ mass (in $\text{ mm}$)?

The length of a wire becomes $l_1$ and $l_2$ when $100\,N$ and $120\,N$ tensions are applied respectively. If $10l_2 = 11l_1$,the natural length of the wire will be $\frac{1}{x} l_1$. Here,the value of $x$ is ........
