$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is clamped rigidly at one end. When the other end of the wire is pulled by a force $f$,its length increases by $l$. Another wire of the same material of length $2L$ and radius $2r$ is pulled by a force $2f$. Then the increase in its length will be

  • A
    $2l$
  • B
    $l$
  • C
    $4l$
  • D
    $l/2$

The adjacent graph shows the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1\, m$ suspended from the top of a roof at one end and with a load $W$ connected to the other end. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $10^{-6}\, m^2$,calculate the Young's modulus of the material of the wire.

$A$ compressive force, $F$ is applied at the two ends of a long thin steel rod. It is heated, simultaneously, such that its temperature increases by $\Delta T$. The net change in its length is zero. Let $l$ be the length of the rod, $A$ its area of cross-section, $Y$ its Young's modulus, and $\alpha$ its coefficient of linear expansion. Then, $F$ is equal to
