Two wires of same length having radius of $2 \ mm$ and $1.5 \ mm$ respectively are loaded with same weights. Extension of the second wire is double than that of the first wire. What is the ratio of the Young's modulus of the first wire to that of the second wire?

$A$ piece of copper having a rectangular cross-section of $15.2 \; mm \times 19.1 \; mm$ is pulled in tension with $44,500 \; N$ force,producing only elastic deformation. Calculate the resulting strain.

The ratio of the areas of cross-sections of three wires is $1:2:3$ and the ratio of the Young's moduli of their materials is $3:2:1$. If the three wires are of the same length and the same stretching force is applied to the three wires, then the ratio of the elongations of the three wires is

Which material has a higher Young's modulus: copper or steel?

The Young's modulus of a wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is $Y$. If the length is reduced to $\frac{L}{2}$ and radius is $\frac{r}{2}$,then the Young's modulus will be

$A$ student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly $2 \,m$ long, by Searle's method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be $0.8 \,mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.05 \,mm$ at a load of exactly $1.0 \,kg$. The student also measures the diameter of the wire to be $0.4 \,mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01 \,mm$. Take $g=9.8 \,m/s^2$ (exact). The Young's modulus obtained from the reading is
