If the ratio of diameters,lengths and Young's moduli of steel and brass wires shown in the figure are $p, q$ and $r$ respectively,then the corresponding ratio of increase in their lengths would be

  • A
    $\frac {3q}{5p^2r}$
  • B
    $\frac {5q}{3p^2r}$
  • C
    $\frac {3q}{5pr}$
  • D
    $\frac {5q}{3pr}$

Explain the experimental determination of Young's modulus.

Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. The first wire has cross-sectional area $A$ and the second wire has cross-sectional area $3A$. If the length of the first wire is increased by $\Delta l$ on applying a force $F$,how much force is needed to stretch the second wire by the same amount?

The ratio of the lengths of two wires $A$ and $B$ of the same material is $1 : 2$ and the ratio of their diameters is $2 : 1$. If they are stretched by the same force,what is the ratio of the increase in their lengths?

$A$ force $F$ is applied to a wire of length $L$ and radius $r$,resulting in an extension $l$. What will be the extension in a wire of length $2L$ and radius $2r$ when a force $2F$ is applied?

$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is clamped at one end. If its other end is pulled by a force $F$,its length increases by $l$. If the radius of the wire and the applied force both are reduced to half of their original values keeping original length constant,the increase in length will become.
