What is the Young's modulus and bulk modulus for a perfect rigid body?

$A$ sphere of mass $2 \,kg$ and diameter $4.5 \,cm$ is attached to the lower end of a steel wire of $2 \,m$ length and area of cross-section $0.24 \times 10^{-6} \,m^2$. The wire is suspended from a $205 \,cm$ high ceiling of a room. When the system is made to oscillate as a simple pendulum, the sphere just grazes the floor at its lowest position. Find the velocity of the sphere at the lowest position. (Young's modulus of steel $= 2 \times 10^{11} \,Nm^{-2}$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,ms^{-2}$) (in $\,ms^{-1}$)

The force required to stretch a steel wire of area of cross-section $1 \,mm^2$ to double its length is (Young's modulus of steel $= 2 \times 10^{11} \,N \,m^{-2}$)

The force required to stretch a wire of cross-section $1 \ cm^{2}$ to double its length will be ........ $\times 10^{7} \ N$. (Given Young's modulus of the wire $= 2 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^{2}$)

As shown in the figure,in an experiment to determine Young's modulus of a wire,the extension-load curve is plotted. The curve is a straight line passing through the origin and makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the load axis. The length of the wire is $62.8\,cm$ and its diameter is $4\,mm$. The Young's modulus is found to be $x \times 10^4\,N/m^2$. The value of $x$ is
