$A$ load of $1 \,kg$ weight is attached to one end of a steel wire of area of cross-section $3 \,mm^2$ and Young's modulus $10^{11} \,N/m^2$. The other end is suspended vertically from a hook on a wall, then the load is pulled horizontally and released. When the load passes through its lowest position, the fractional change in length is $(g = 10 \,m/s^2)$.

$A$ truck is pulling a car out of a ditch by means of a steel cable that is $9.1 \, m$ long and has a radius of $5 \, mm$. When the car just begins to move,the tension in the cable is $800 \, N$. How much has the cable stretched? (Young's modulus for steel is $2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$)

Two uniform rods $AB$ and $BC$ have Young's moduli $1.2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ and $1.5 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ respectively. If the coefficient of linear expansion of $AB$ is $1.5 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ}C$ and both have equal area of cross-section,then the coefficient of linear expansion of $BC$,for which there is no shift of the junction at all temperatures,is ............. $\times 10^{-5} /^{\circ}C$.
