$A$ metal bar of length $L$ and area of cross-section $A$ is clamped between two rigid supports. For the material of the rod,its Young's modulus is $Y$ and coefficient of linear expansion is $\alpha$. If the temperature of the rod is increased by $\Delta t ^\circ C$,the force exerted by the rod on the supports is

Let $L$ be the length and $d$ be the diameter of the cross-section of a wire. Wires of the same material with different $L$ and $d$ are subjected to the same tension along the length of the wire. In which of the following cases will the extension of the wire be the maximum?

The length of a metal wire is $L_1$ when the tension is $T_1$ and $L_2$ when the tension is $T_2$. The unstretched length of the wire is:

$A$ steel wire of length $20 \text{ cm}$ and area of cross-section $1 \text{ mm}^2$ is tied rigidly at both the ends. When the temperature of the wire is changed from $40^{\circ} \text{C}$ to $20^{\circ} \text{C}$, find the change in its tension. Given, the coefficient of linear expansion for steel is $\alpha = 1.1 \times 10^{-5} {}^{\circ} \text{C}^{-1}$ and Young's modulus of steel is $Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \text{ N/m}^2$. (in $\text{ N}$)

The ratio of Young's modulus of three wires is $2 : 2 : 1$ and the ratio of their cross-sectional areas is $1 : 2 : 3$. If the same force is applied to each,what is the ratio of the increase in their lengths?

Young's modulus of a perfectly rigid body material is
