$A$ wire fixed at the upper end stretches by length $l$ by applying a force $F$. The work done in stretching is

  • A
    $\frac{F}{2l}$
  • B
    $Fl$
  • C
    $2Fl$
  • D
    $\frac{Fl}{2}$

Two wires of the same diameter and the same material have lengths $l$ and $2l$. If the same force $F$ is applied to each,what is the ratio of the work done in stretching the two wires?

One end of a slack wire (Young's modulus $Y$,length $L$ and cross-sectional area $A$) is clamped to a rigid wall and the other end to a block (mass $m$),which rests on a smooth horizontal plane. The block is set in motion with a speed $v$. What is the maximum distance the block will travel after the wire becomes taut?

If the work done in stretching a wire by $1 \ mm$ is $2 \ J$,the work necessary for stretching another wire of the same material but with double the radius of cross-section and half the length by $1 \ mm$ is:

When a $8 \,m$ long wire is stretched by a load of $10 \,kg-wt$, it is elongated by $1.5 \,mm$. The energy stored in the wire in this process is $\left(g=10 \,ms^{-2}\right)$ (in $\,J$)

When a weight $Mg$ is suspended from a wire of length $L$,the increase in length is $l$ meters. The energy stored in the wire is:
