    $16 \times 10^5 \ Jm^{-3}$
  • B
    $1 \times 10^5 \ Jm^{-3}$
  • C
    $4 \times 10^5 \ Jm^{-3}$

$A$ structural steel rod has a radius of $10 \;mm$ and a length of $1.0 \;m$. $A$ $100 \;kN$ force stretches it along its length. Calculate $(a)$ stress,$(b)$ elongation,and $(c)$ strain on the rod. Young's modulus of structural steel is $2.0 \times 10^{11} \;N \;m^{-2}$.

One end of a metal wire is fixed to a ceiling and a load of $2 \ kg$ hangs from the other end. $A$ similar wire is attached to the bottom of the load and another load of $1 \ kg$ hangs from this lower wire. Then the ratio of longitudinal strain of the upper wire to that of the lower wire will be . . . . . . .
[Area of cross section of wire $= 0.005 \ cm^2$,$Y = 2 \times 10^{11} \ Nm^{-2}$ and $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$]

If the given graph shows the load $(W)$ attached to and the elongation $(\Delta l)$ produced in a wire of length $1 \,m$ and area of cross-section $1 \,mm^2$, then the Young's modulus of the material of the wire is

The force required to stretch a wire of cross-section $1 \ cm^{2}$ to double its length will be ........ $\times 10^{7} \ N$. (Given Young's modulus of the wire $= 2 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^{2}$)

In steel,the Young's modulus and the strain at the breaking point are $2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ and $0.15$ respectively. The stress at the breaking point for steel is therefore:
