$A$ load $W$ produces an extension of $1 \ mm$ in a thread of radius $r$. If the load is increased to $4W$ and the radius is increased to $2r$,while all other factors remain the same,what will be the new extension in $mm$?

$A$ mild steel wire of length $2l$ meter and cross-sectional area $A \; m^2$ is fixed horizontally between two pillars. $A$ small mass $m \; kg$ is suspended from the midpoint of the wire. If the extension in the wire is within the elastic limit,then the depression $x$ at the midpoint of the wire will be:

$A$ steel wire of length $4.7\; m$ and cross-sectional area $3.0 \times 10^{-5}\; m^{2}$ stretches by the same amount as a copper wire of length $3.5\; m$ and cross-sectional area of $4.0 \times 10^{-5}\; m^{2}$ under a given load. What is the ratio of the Young's modulus of steel to that of copper?

The two wires $A$ and $B$ of equal cross-section but of different materials are joined together. The ratio of Young's modulus of wire $A$ and wire $B$ is $20/11$. When the joined wire is kept under certain tension the elongations in the wires $A$ and $B$ are equal. If the length of wire $A$ is $2.2\text{ m}$, then the length of wire $B$ is . . . . . . m.

When a certain weight is suspended from a long uniform wire,its length increases by $1 \ cm$. If the same weight is suspended from another wire of the same material and length but having a diameter half of the first one,then the increase in length will be ........ $cm$.
