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 $10^{-5} { }^{\circ}\,C$, Young's modulus of steel is $10^{11}\, N /$ $m ^2$ and radius of the wire is $1\, mm$. Assume that $L \gg $ diameter of the wire. Then the value of ' $m$ ' in $kg$ is nearly

The elongation of a wire on the surface of the earth is $10^{-4} \; m$. The same wire of same dimensions is elongated by $6 \times 10^{-5} \; m$ on another planet. The acceleration due to gravity on the planet will be $\dots \; ms ^{-2}$. (Take acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth $=10 \; m / s ^{-2}$ )
