The mean distance between the atoms of iron is $3 \times 10^{-10} \ m$ and the interatomic force constant for iron is $7 \ N/m$. The Young's modulus of elasticity for iron is:

  • A
    $2.33 \times 10^5 \ N/m^2$
  • B
    $23.3 \times 10^{10} \ N/m^2$

The adjacent graph shows the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1\, m$ suspended from the top of a roof at one end and with a load $W$ connected to the other end. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $10^{-6}\, m^2$,calculate the Young's modulus of the material of the wire.

$A$ $500 \,g$ ball is attached to one end of an aluminum wire of area of cross-section $0.5 \,mm^2$ and an unstretched length of $1.4 \,m$. The other end of the wire is fixed to the top of a vertical pole. The ball rotates about the pole in a horizontal plane such that the angle between the wire and the horizontal is $30^{\circ}$. The increase in the length of the wire is . . . . . . $mm$. (Young's modulus of aluminum $= 0.7 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m/s^2$)

$(a)$ $A$ steel wire of mass $\mu$ per unit length with a circular cross-section has a radius of $0.1\,cm$. The wire is of length $10\,m$ when measured lying horizontal and hangs from a hook on the wall. $A$ mass of $25\,kg$ is hung from the free end of the wire. Assuming the wire to be uniform and lateral strains $\ll$ longitudinal strains,find the extension in the length of the wire. The density of steel is $7860\,kg/m^3$ and Young's modulus $Y = 2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$.

As shown in the figure,a light uniform rod $PQ$ of length $150 \ cm$ is suspended from the ceiling horizontally using two metal wires $A$ and $B$ tied to the ends of the rod. The ratios of the radii and the Young's moduli of the materials of the two wires $A$ and $B$ are respectively $2:3$ and $3:2$. The position at which a weight should be suspended from the rod such that the elongations of the two wires become equal is
