$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is clamped at one end. If its other end is pulled by a force $F$,its length increases by $l$. If the radius of the wire and the applied force both are reduced to half of their original values keeping original length constant,the increase in length will become.

$A$ wire is stretched $1 \ mm$ by a force $F$. If a second wire of same material,same length and $4$ times the diameter of the first wire is stretched by the same force $F$,then the elongation of the second wire is

$A$ steel rod has a radius of $10 \,mm$ and a length of $1 \,m$. $A$ $80 \,kN$ force stretches it along its length. If the Young's modulus of the rod is $2 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$, then the change in length is

$A$ wire extends by $1 \ mm$ when a force is applied. If double the force is applied to another wire of the same material and length but half the radius of the cross-section,what will be the elongation of the wire in $mm$?

Two metallic wires $P$ and $Q$ have the same volume and are made up of the same material. If their areas of cross-section are in the ratio $4:1$ and a force $F_1$ is applied to $P$,an extension of $\Delta l$ is produced. The force required to produce the same extension in $Q$ is $F_2$. The value of $\frac{F_1}{F_2}$ is . . . . . . .
