Two rods of same material and volume having circular cross-section are subjected to tension $T$. Within the elastic limit,the same force is applied to both the rods. If the diameter of the first rod is half of the second rod,then the ratio of the extension of the first rod to the second rod will be: (in $: 1$)

$A$ constant force is applied to a metal wire of length $L$. The volume of the wire remains constant. The extension produced is proportional to:

On applying a stress of $20 \times 10^8 \ N/m^2$,the length of a perfectly elastic wire is doubled. Its Young's modulus will be:

Consider the situation shown in the figure. The force $F$ is equal to $m_2g/2$. If the area of cross-section of the string is $A$ and its Young's modulus is $Y$,find the strain developed in it. The string is light and there is no friction anywhere.
