$A$ piece of copper having a rectangular cross-section of $15.2 \; mm \times 19.1 \; mm$ is pulled in tension with $44,500 \; N$ force,producing only elastic deformation. Calculate the resulting strain.

Young's modulus of elasticity of a material depends upon

In a human pyramid in a circus,the entire weight of the balanced group is supported by the legs of a performer who is lying on his back. The combined mass of all the persons performing the act,and the tables,plaques,etc.,involved is $280 \; kg$. The mass of the performer lying on his back at the bottom of the pyramid is $60 \; kg$. Each thighbone (femur) of this performer has a length of $50 \; cm$ and an effective radius of $2.0 \; cm$. Determine the amount by which each thighbone gets compressed under the extra load. (Take Young's modulus for bone $Y = 9.4 \times 10^9 \; N/m^2$)

The ratio of the lengths of two wires $A$ and $B$ of the same material is $1 : 2$ and the ratio of their diameters is $2 : 1$. If they are stretched by the same force,what is the ratio of the increase in their lengths?

$A$ steel rod has a radius of $10 \,mm$ and a length of $1.0 \,m$. $A$ force stretches it along its length and produces a strain of $0.32 \%$. The Young's modulus of the steel is $2.0 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$. What is the magnitude of the force stretching the rod in $kN$?

Two wires $A$ and $B$ made of the same material and areas of cross-section in the ratio $1: 2$ are stretched by the same force. If the masses of the wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $2: 3$,then the ratio of the elongations of the wires $A$ and $B$ is
