At $40\,^oC$,a brass wire of radius $0.5\, mm$ (diameter $1\, mm$) is hung from the ceiling. $A$ small mass $M$ is hung from the free end of the wire. When the wire is cooled down from $40\,^oC$ to $20\,^oC$,it regains its original length of $0.2\, m$. The value of $M$ is close to ........$kg$. (Coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = 10^{-5}/^oC$ and Young's modulus $Y = 10^{11}\, N/m^2$; $g = 10\, ms^{-2}$)

The units of Young's modulus of elasticity are

In an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire of length exactly $1\;m$,the extension in the length of the wire is measured as $0.4\;mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.02\;mm$ when a load of $1\;kg$ is applied. The diameter of the wire is measured as $0.4\;mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01\;mm$. The error in the measurement of Young's modulus $(\Delta Y)$ is found to be $x \times 10^{10}\;N/m^2$. The value of $x$ is (Take $g = 10\;m/s^2$)

Two wires each of radius $0.2\,cm$ and negligible mass, one made of steel and the other made of brass, are loaded as shown in the figure. The elongation of the steel wire is $.........\times 10^{-6}\,m$. [Young's modulus for steel $= 2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$ and $g = 10\,m/s^2$]

The area of a cross-section of a steel wire is $0.1 \, cm^2$ and Young's modulus of steel is $2 \times 10^{11} \, N \, m^{-2}$. The force required to stretch it by $0.1 \%$ of its original length is ......... $N$.
