$A$ 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?

Young's modulus depends upon

Young's moduli of two wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $7 : 4$. Wire $A$ is $2\, m$ long and has radius $R$. Wire $B$ is $1.5\, m$ long and has radius $2\, mm$. If the two wires stretch by the same length for a given load,then the value of $R$ is close to ......... $mm$.

$A$ wire of cross-sectional area $10^{-6} \, m^2$ is elongated by $0.1 \%$ when the tension in it is $1000 \, N$. The Young's modulus of the material of the wire is (Assume radius of the wire is constant).

The mass and length of a wire are $M$ and $L$ respectively. The density of the material of the wire is $d$. On applying a force $F$ on the wire,the increase in length is $l$. Then,the Young's modulus of the material of the wire will be:
