The following four wires are made of the same material. Which of these will have the largest extension when the same tension is applied?
When a block of mass $M$ is suspended by a long wire of length $L$, the length of the wire becomes $(L+l)$. The elastic potential energy stored in the extended wire is:
The maximum elongation of a steel wire of $1 \text{ m}$ length if the elastic limit of steel and its Young's modulus, respectively, are $8 \times 10^8 \text{ N m}^{-2}$ and $2 \times 10^{11} \text{ N m}^{-2}$, is:
Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. The first wire has a cross-sectional area $A$ and the second wire has a cross-sectional area $3A$. If the length of the first wire is increased by $\Delta l$ on applying a force $F$, how much force is needed to stretch the second wire by the same amount?
Let a wire be suspended from the ceiling (rigid support) and stretched by a weight $W$ attached at its free end. The longitudinal stress at any point of the cross-sectional area $A$ of the wire is:
The amount of elastic potential energy per unit volume (in SI unit) of a steel wire of length $100\text{ cm}$ to stretch it by $1\text{ mm}$ is: (given: Young's modulus of the wire $Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11}\text{ N/m}^2$)
The Young's modulus of steel is twice that of brass. Two wires of the same length and of the same area of cross-section, one of steel and another of brass are suspended from the same roof. If we want the lower ends of the wires to be at the same level, then the weight added to the steel and brass wires must be in the ratio of:
Given below are two statements: Assertion (A): The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring. Reason (R): A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of the same dimensions.
