  • A
    $Y \frac{L}{\ell}$
  • B
    $\frac{Y \alpha}{\Delta \theta}$
  • C
    $Y \alpha \Delta \theta$
  • D
    $Y \left( \frac{\ell}{L} \right)^2$

$A$ steel wire of length $L$ at $40^{\circ} C$ is suspended from the ceiling and then a mass $m$ is hung from its free end. The wire is cooled down from $40^{\circ} C$ to $30^{\circ} C$ to regain its original length $L$. The coefficient of linear thermal expansion of the steel is $\alpha = 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$,Young's modulus of steel is $Y = 10^{11} N/m^2$,and the radius of the wire is $r = 1 \ mm$. Assume that $L \gg$ diameter of the wire. Then the value of $m$ in $kg$ is nearly:

$A$ wire of length $2L$ is fixed between two walls. When a weight $W = mg$ is applied at its midpoint,it sags by a distance $x$ $(x << L)$. Then $m$ is equal to:
