$A$ metal rod of Young's modulus $Y$ and coefficient of thermal expansion $\alpha$ is held at its two ends such that its length remains invariant. If its temperature is raised by $t^{\circ} C$,the linear stress developed in it is

  • A
    $Y \alpha t$
  • B
    $\frac{Y}{\alpha t}$
  • C
    $\frac{\alpha t}{Y}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{Y \alpha t}$

$A$ 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:

The following four wires are made of the same material. Which one will have the largest elongation when subjected to the same tension?

Two wires made of the same material are clamped rigidly at one end and pulled by the same force on the other end. The length and the radius of the first wire are three times those of the second wire. If $x$ is the increase in the length of the first wire,then the increase in the length of the second wire is

$A$ ring of a thin wire of cross-sectional area $a$ and length $l$ is dipped into a liquid of surface tension $\sigma$ and taken out so that a film of liquid is formed in the ring. If Young's modulus of the material of the wire is $Y$,then the longitudinal strain developed in the ring will be:
