Two identical wires of substances $P$ and $Q$ are subjected to equal stretching force along the length. If the elongation of $Q$ is more than that of $P$,then

  • A
    both $P$ and $Q$ are equally elastic
  • B
    $P$ is more elastic than $Q$
  • C
    $P$ is plastic and $Q$ is elastic
  • D

The stress versus strain graphs for wires of two materials $A$ and $B$ are as shown in the figure. If $Y_A$ and $Y_B$ are the Young's modulus of the materials,then

The figure represents the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1\text{ m}$, suspended from the ceiling of a room at one end with a load $W$ connected to the other end. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $10^{-5}\text{ m}^2$, then the Young's modulus of the wire is . . . . . . $\text{N/m}^2$.

$A$ $14.5\; kg$ mass,fastened to the end of a steel wire of unstretched length $1.0\; m$,is whirled in a vertical circle with an angular velocity of $2\; rev/s$ at the bottom of the circle. The cross-sectional area of the wire is $0.065\; cm^2$. Calculate the elongation of the wire when the mass is at the lowest point of its path.

$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is rigidly fixed at one end. On stretching the other end of the wire with a force $F$,the increase in its length is $l$. If another wire of same material but of length $2L$ and radius $2r$ is stretched with a force of $2F$,the increase in its length will be

$A$ wire of length $L$ and area of cross-section $A$ is hanging from a fixed support. The length of the wire changes to $L_{1}$ when a mass $M$ is suspended from its free end. The expression for Young's modulus is:
