$A$ steel wire $1.5\,m$ long and of radius $1\,mm$ is attached with a load of $3\,kg$ at one end,while the other end is fixed. It is whirled in a vertical circle with a frequency of $2\,Hz$. Find the elongation of the wire when the weight is at the lowest position. (Given: $Y = 2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$ and $g = 10\,m/s^2$)

  • A
    $1.77 \times 10^{-3}\,m$
  • B
    $7.17 \times 10^{-3}\,m$
  • C
    $3.17 \times 10^{-7}\,m$
  • D
    $1.37 \times 10^{-7}\,m$

Which material has a higher Young's modulus: copper or steel?

Two wires of the same material have lengths in the ratio $1:2$ and diameters in the ratio $2:1$. If they are stretched by forces $F_A$ and $F_B$ respectively to produce the same extension,then the ratio $\frac{F_A}{F_B}$ is:
