If the length of a wire is made double and the radius is halved of its respective values,then the Young's modulus of the material of the wire will:

  • A
    Remain the same
  • B
    Become $8$ times its initial value
  • C
    Become $\frac{1}{4}$ of its initial value
  • D
    Become $4$ times its initial value

The elongation of the copper wire of cross-sectional area $3.5 \,mm^2$, as shown in the figure, is (Given: $Y_{\text{copper}} = 10 \times 10^{10} \,N/m^2$ and $g = 10 \,m/s^2$).

$A$ steel and a brass wire, each of length $50 \,cm$ and cross-sectional area $0.005 \,cm^{2}$, hang from a ceiling and are $15 \,cm$ apart. Lower ends of the wires are attached to a light horizontal bar. $A$ suitable downward load is applied to the bar so that each of the wires extends in length by $0.1 \,cm$. At what distance from the steel wire must the load be applied (in $\,cm$)? [Young's modulus of steel is $2 \times 10^{12} \,dynes/cm^{2}$ and that of brass is $1 \times 10^{12} \,dynes/cm^{2}$]
