$A$ steel wire and a copper wire are joined end to end having equal cross-sections. The elongation of the two wires is found to be equal under tension. What is the ratio of the length of the steel wire to the length of the copper wire? (Young's modulus of steel $= 2.0 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$ and Young's modulus of copper $= 1.1 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2}$)

$A$ copper wire of length $1.0\, m$ and a steel wire of length $0.5\, m$ having equal cross-sectional areas are joined end to end. The composite wire is stretched by a certain load which stretches the copper wire by $1\, mm$. If the Young's moduli of copper and steel are respectively $1.0 \times 10^{11}\, N/m^2$ and $2.0 \times 10^{11}\, N/m^2$,the total extension of the composite wire is ........ $mm$.

When a wire of length $L$ clamped at one end is pulled by a force $F$ from the other end,its length increases by $l$. If the radius of the wire and the applied force were halved,then the increase in its length is
