The maximum elongation of a steel wire of $1 \,m$ length if the elastic limit of steel and its Young's modulus,respectively,are $8 \times 10^8 \,N \,m^{-2}$ and $2 \times 10^{11} \,N \,m^{-2}$,is: (in $\,mm$)

The speed of a transverse wave passing through a string of length $50 \; cm$ and mass $10 \; g$ is $60 \; ms^{-1}$. The area of cross-section of the wire is $2.0 \; mm^2$ and its Young's modulus is $1.2 \times 10^{11} \; Nm^{-2}$. The extension of the wire over its natural length due to its tension will be $x \times 10^{-5} \; m$. The value of $x$ is $...$

In which case is there maximum extension in the wire,if the same force is applied to each wire?

$A$ uniformly tapering conical wire is made from a material of Young's modulus $Y$ and has a normal,unextended length $L$. The radii at the upper and lower ends of this conical wire have values $R$ and $3R$,respectively. The upper end of the wire is fixed to a rigid support and a mass $M$ is suspended from its lower end. The equilibrium extended length of this wire would be:

One end of a steel wire of radius $r$ is fixed to a ceiling and a load of $3 \ kg$ is attached to the free end of the wire. Another wire made of copper of radius $2r$ is attached to the bottom of the $3 \ kg$ load and a $2 \ kg$ load is attached to the free end of the copper wire. The ratio of longitudinal strains produced in copper and steel wires is (Young modulus of steel $= 20 \times 10^{10} \ Nm^{-2}$,Young modulus of copper $= 12 \times 10^{10} \ Nm^{-2}$)

Two wires of the same material have lengths in the ratio $1:2$ and diameters in the ratio $2:1$. If they are stretched by forces $F_A$ and $F_B$ respectively to produce the same extension,then the ratio $\frac{F_A}{F_B}$ is:
