The length of a metal wire is found to be $L_1$ and $L_2$ when the tensions $T_1$ and $T_2$ are applied to it respectively. The natural length of the wire is

  • A
    $\frac{L_1 T_1+L_2 T_2}{T_2+T_1}$
  • B
    $\frac{L_1+L_2}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{L_1 T_2+L_2 T_1}{T_2+T_1}$
  • D
    $\frac{L_1 T_2-L_2 T_1}{T_2-T_1}$

Two metal wires $A$ and $B$ have lengths $L$ and $3L$ respectively. The radii of the cross-sectional circular areas of wires $A$ and $B$ are $R$ and $2R$, respectively. These wires are joined end-to-end along their axis. When one end of the combined system is fixed and the other end is pulled with a constant force $F$, the elongation in both wires is equal. If $Y_A$ and $Y_B$ are the Young's moduli of wires $A$ and $B$, respectively, then the ratio $Y_B / Y_A$ is:

$A$ $0.1 \,kg$ mass is suspended from a wire of negligible mass. The length of the wire is $1 \,m$ and its cross-sectional area is $4.9 \times 10^{-7} \,m^2$. If the mass is pulled a little in the vertically downward direction and released, it performs simple harmonic motion of angular frequency $140 \,rad \,s^{-1}$. If the Young's modulus of the material of the wire is $n \times 10^9 \,N \,m^{-2}$, the value of $n$ is

Young's moduli of the material of wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio of $1: 4$,while their areas of cross-section are in the ratio of $1: 3$. If the same amount of load is applied to both the wires,the amount of elongation produced in the wires $A$ and $B$ will be in the ratio of [Assume length of wires $A$ and $B$ are same].

$A$ $3 \ m$ long wire of radius $3 \ mm$ shows an extension of $0.1 \ mm$ when loaded vertically by a mass of $50 \ kg$ in an experiment to determine Young's modulus.
