$A$ load of mass $M \ kg$ is suspended from a steel wire of length $2 \ m$ and radius $1.0 \ mm$ in Searle's apparatus experiment. The increase in length produced in the wire is $4.0 \ mm$. Now,the load is fully immersed in a liquid of relative density $2$. The relative density of the material of the load is $8$. The new value of increase in length of the steel wire is ........ $mm$.

The modulus of elasticity is dimensionally equivalent to

The dimensional formula for Young's modulus is

Two wires of same length having radius of $2 \ mm$ and $1.5 \ mm$ respectively are loaded with same weights. Extension of the second wire is double than that of the first wire. What is the ratio of the Young's modulus of the first wire to that of the second wire?

$A$ steel rail of length $5\,m$ and area of cross-section $40\,cm^2$ is prevented from expanding along its length while the temperature rises by $10\,^{\circ}C$. If the coefficient of linear expansion and Young's modulus of steel are $1.2\times10^{-5}\,K^{-1}$ and $2\times10^{11}\,N/m^2$ respectively,the force developed in the rail is approximately:
