An object of mass $15 \,kg$ is attached to the end of a metal wire of unstretched length $1.0 \,m$. The object is then whirled in a vertical circle with an angular velocity of $4 \,rad/s$ at the bottom of the circle. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $0.05 \,cm^2$ and Young's modulus of the metal is $2 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$, then calculate the elongation of the wire when the mass is at the lowest point of its path. (Take $g = 10 \,m/s^2$) (in $\,mm$)

  • A
    $0.27$
  • B
    $0.39$
  • C
    $0.55$
  • D
    $0.25$

Two different wires made with the same material have their radii in the ratio $1:2$. Their lengths are also in the ratio $1:2$. If the extensions produced are equal when subjected to different loads,find the ratio of the loads applied.

$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is rigidly fixed at one end. On stretching the other end of the wire with a force $F$,the increase in length is $l$. If another wire of the same material but double the length and double the radius is stretched with a force $2F$,then the increase in length is:

$A$ uniform steel rod of mass $1.8 \,kg$ and length $0.8 \,m$ is hung from a nail with the help of two steel wires,each of area of cross-section $0.01 \,mm^2$ and unstretched length $0.5 \,m$,as shown in the figure. The centre of mass of the rod lies vertically below the nail. The increase in the distance between the centre of mass of the rod and the nail due to stretching of the wires as the rod hangs is . . . . . . $mm$. (Young's modulus of steel $= 2 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m/s^2$)

The figure represents the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1\text{ m}$, suspended from the ceiling of a room at one end with a load $W$ connected to the other end. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $10^{-5}\text{ m}^2$, then the Young's modulus of the wire is . . . . . . $\text{N/m}^2$.

$A$ wire is loaded by $6 \ kg$ at its one end,the increase in length is $12 \ mm$. If the radius of the wire is doubled and all other magnitudes are unchanged,then the increase in length will be ......... $mm$.
