The pressure that has to be applied to the ends of a steel wire of length $10 \ cm$ to keep its length constant when its temperature is raised by $100 \ ^\circ C$ is: (For steel,Young's modulus $Y = 2 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2$ and coefficient of thermal expansion $\alpha = 1.1 \times 10^{-5} \ K^{-1}$)

Two wires of equal lengths are made of the same material. Wire $A$ has a diameter that is twice as that of wire $B$. If identical weights are suspended from the ends of these wires,the increase in length is

$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is clamped rigidly at one end. When the other end of the wire is pulled by a force $f$,its length increases by $l$. Another wire of the same material of length $2L$ and radius $2r$ is pulled by a force $2f$. Then the increase in its length will be

$A$ copper wire of length $2.2 \; m$ and a steel wire of length $1.6 \; m$,both of diameter $3.0 \; mm$,are connected end to end. When stretched by a load,the net elongation is found to be $0.70 \; mm$. Obtain the load applied in $N$.

$A$ rigid bar of mass $15 \, kg$ is supported symmetrically by three wires,each $2 \, m$ long. The wires at each end are made of copper,and the middle one is made of steel. The Young's modulus of elasticity for copper and steel are $110 \times 10^9 \, N/m^2$ and $190 \times 10^9 \, N/m^2$ respectively. If each wire is to have the same tension,the ratio of their diameters (diameter of copper wire to diameter of steel wire) will be ............

Two similar wires under the same load yield elongations of $0.1 \ mm$ and $0.05 \ mm$ respectively. If the area of cross-section of the first wire is $4 \ mm^2$,then the area of cross-section of the second wire is..... $mm^2$.
