(N/A) The equation for the bending of a beam (or rod) is given by the relation: $M = \frac{Y I_g}{R}$,where $M$ is the bending moment,$Y$ is Young's modulus of the material,$I_g$ is the geometrical moment of inertia of the cross-section about the neutral axis,and $R$ is the radius of curvature of the neutral axis.
The bending moment $M$ is defined as the product of force and distance,so its $SI$ unit is $N \cdot m$ (Newton-meter).
The dimensional formula for the bending moment is $[M^1 L^2 T^{-2}]$.

What force is required to increase the length of a wire of diameter $4 \, mm$ and Young's modulus $9 \times 10^{10} \, N/m^2$ by $0.1\%$?

When a weight of $10 \,kg$ is suspended from a copper wire of length $3 \,m$ and diameter $0.4 \,mm$, its length increases by $2.4 \,cm$. If the diameter of the wire is doubled, then the extension in its length will be (in $\,cm$)

The length of a metallic wire is $l$. The tension in the wire is $T_1$ for length $l_1$ and the tension in the wire is $T_2$ for length $l_2$. Find the original length $l$.

$A$ wooden wheel of radius $R$ is made of two semicircular parts (see figure). The two parts are held together by a ring made of a metal strip of cross-sectional area $S$ and length $L$. $L$ is slightly less than $2\pi R$. To fit the ring on the wheel,it is heated so that its temperature rises by $\Delta T$ and it just slips over the wheel. As it cools down to the surrounding temperature,it presses the semicircular parts together. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the metal is $\alpha$,and its Young's modulus is $Y$,the force that one part of the wheel applies on the other part is:
