$A$ wire of cross-sectional area $3 \, mm^2$ is first stretched between two fixed points at a temperature of $20^{\circ}C$. Determine the tension in the wire when the temperature falls to $10^{\circ}C$. Given: Coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = 10^{-5} \, ^{\circ}C^{-1}$ and Young's modulus $Y = 2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$.

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

$A$ steel rod of length $1\,m$ and area of cross-section $1\,cm^2$ is heated from $0\,^{\circ}C$ to $200\,^{\circ}C$ without being allowed to extend or bend. Find the tension produced in the rod $(Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2, \alpha = 10^{-5} \,^{\circ}C^{-1})$.

The length of a metal wire is found to be $L_1$ and $L_2$ when the tensions $T_1$ and $T_2$ are applied to it respectively. The natural length of the wire is

$A$ steel rod of length $1\,m$ and cross-sectional area $10^{-4}\,m^2$ is heated from $0^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$ without being allowed to extend or bend. The compressive force produced in the rod is $........\times 10^4\,N$. (Given: Young's modulus of steel $Y = 2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$,coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = 10^{-5}\,K^{-1}$)

One end of a steel rod of radius $10.0 \ mm$ and length $50.0 \ cm$ is clamped on a horizontal table. The other end of the rod is pulled with a force of magnitude $10.0 \times \pi \ kN$. This force is uniform across the flat surface of the rod and is perpendicular to it. The change in the length of the rod due to this applied force is (Use Young's modulus $= 2.0 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2$) (in $mm$)
