$A$ ring of a thin wire of cross-sectional area $a$ and length $l$ is dipped into a liquid of surface tension $\sigma$ and taken out so that a film of liquid is formed in the ring. If Young's modulus of the material of the wire is $Y$,then the longitudinal strain developed in the ring will be:

  • A
    $\frac{l\sigma}{\pi aY}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi aY}{l\sigma}$
  • C
    $\frac{l\sigma}{aY}$
  • D

The interatomic distance for a metal is $3 \times 10^{-10} \ m$. If the interatomic force constant is $3.6 \times 10^{-9} \ N/\mathring{A}$,then the Young's modulus in $N/m^2$ will be:

$A$ thin rod having a length of $1\;m$ and area of cross-section $3 \times 10^{-6}\;m^2$ is suspended vertically from one end. The rod is cooled from $210^{\circ}C$ to $160^{\circ}C$. After cooling,a mass $M$ is attached at the lower end of the rod such that the length of the rod again becomes $1\;m$. Young's modulus and coefficient of linear expansion of the rod are $2 \times 10^{11}\;Nm^{-2}$ and $2 \times 10^{-5}\;K^{-1}$,respectively. The value of $M$ is $.......kg$. (Take $g=10\;ms^{-2}$)

$A$ wooden wheel of radius $R$ is made of two semicircular parts. The two parts are held together by a metal ring of cross-sectional area $S$ and length $L$. $L$ is slightly less than $2\pi R$. To fit the ring on the wheel,the ring is heated by a temperature $\Delta T$. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $\alpha$ and its Young's modulus is $Y$,the force that one part of the wheel exerts on the other is:

$A$ steel rail of length $5\,m$ and area of cross-section $40\,cm^2$ is prevented from expanding along its length while the temperature rises by $10\,^{\circ}C$. If the coefficient of linear expansion and Young's modulus of steel are $1.2\times10^{-5}\,K^{-1}$ and $2\times10^{11}\,N/m^2$ respectively,the force developed in the rail is approximately:

Two wires $A$ and $B$ are made of the same material. Their diameters are in the ratio of $1: 2$ and their lengths are in the ratio of $1: 3$. If they are stretched by the same force,then the increase in their lengths will be in the ratio of:
