A thin $1 \,m$ long rod has a radius of $5\, mm$. A force of $50\,\pi kN$ is applied at one end to determine its Young's modulus. Assume that the force is exactly known. If the least count in the measurement of all lengths is $0.01\, mm$, which of the following statements is false ?
The maximum value of $Y$ that can be determined is $10^{14}\,N/m^2$
$\frac{{\Delta Y}}{Y}$ gets minimum contribution from the uncertainty in the length
$\frac{{\Delta Y}}{Y}$ gets its maximum contribution from the uncertainty in strain
The figure of merit is the largest for the length of the rod.
A copper wire of length $4.0m$ and area of cross-section $1.2\,c{m^2}$ is stretched with a force of $4.8 \times {10^3}$ $N.$ If Young’s modulus for copper is $1.2 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2},$ the increase in the length of the wire will be
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.
In an experiment to determine the Young's modulus, steel wires of five different lengths $(1,2,3,4$ and $5\,m )$ but of same cross section $\left(2\,mm ^{2}\right)$ were taken and curves between extension and load were obtained. The slope (extension/load) of the curves were plotted with the wire length and the following graph is obtained. If the Young's modulus of given steel wires is $x \times 10^{11}\,Nm ^{-2}$, then the value of $x$ is
A wire of cross-sectional area $3\,m{m^2}$ is first stretched between two fixed points at a temperature of $20°C$. Determine the tension when the temperature falls to $10°C$. Coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = {10^{ - 5}} { ^\circ}{C^{ - 1}}$ and $Y = 2 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2}$ ........ $N$
A metal rod of cross-sectional area $10^{-4} \,m ^{2}$ is hanging in a chamber kept at $20^{\circ} C$ with a weight attached to its free end. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the rod is $2.5 \times 10^{-6} \,K ^{-1}$ and its Young's modulus is $4 \times 10^{12} \,N / m ^{2}$. When the temperature of the chamber is lowered to $T$, then a weight of $5000 \,N$ needs to be attached to the rod, so that its length is unchanged. Then, $T$ is ............ $^{\circ} C$
