$A$ stretched wire of a material whose Young's modulus $Y = 2 \times 10^{11} \ Nm^{-2}$ has Poisson's ratio $\sigma = 0.25$. Its lateral strain is $\varepsilon_l = 10^{-3}$. The elastic energy density of the wire is:

Let $L$ be the length and $d$ be the diameter of the cross-section of a wire. Wires of the same material with different $L$ and $d$ are subjected to the same tension along the length of the wire. In which of the following cases will the extension of the wire be the maximum?

$A$ wire is suspended from a rigid support and a weight $W$ is attached to its free end,causing an extension of $1.0 \, mm$. If the same wire is passed over a pulley and a weight $W$ is attached to each of its two ends,what will be the extension in the wire in $mm$?

If the interatomic spacing in a steel wire is $3.0 \mathring{A}$ and $Y_{\text{steel}} = 20 \times 10^{10} \text{ N/m}^2$, then the force constant is:

When a load $W$ is hung from a wire of length $2L$,it just breaks. Now this wire is completely melted and a new wire of length $L$ is formed. If the load $W$ is hung from this new wire,what happens?
