$A$ 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.

Which one of the following substances possesses the highest elasticity?

When a load $W$ is hung from a wire of length $2L$,it just breaks. Now this wire is completely melted and a new wire of length $L$ is formed. If the load $W$ is hung from this new wire,what happens?

$A$ wire of length $2 \, m$ is made from copper having a volume of $10 \, cm^3$. When a force $F$ is applied,the extension in its length is $2 \, mm$. If a wire of length $8 \, m$ is made from the same volume of copper,what will be the extension in its length in $cm$ when the same force $F$ is applied?

Steel and copper wires of the same length are stretched by the same weight one after the other. The Young's modulus of steel and copper are $2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ and $1.2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$,respectively. What is the ratio of the increase in their lengths?

$A$ 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 $N$.
