$A$ steel ring of radius '$r$' is to be fitted over a wooden disc of radius '$R$' $(R > r)$. The force required to expand the ring so that it fits over the disc is ($Y =$ Young's modulus of steel,$A =$ area of cross-section of the wire).

$A$ brass wire of length $2 \ m$ and radius $1 \ mm$ at $27 ^\circ C$ is held taut between two rigid supports. Initially,it was cooled to a temperature of $-43 ^\circ C$,creating a tension $T$ in the wire. The temperature to which the wire has to be cooled in order to increase the tension in it to $1.4 \ T$ is . . . . . . $^\circ C$.

Two wires of the same length and same cross-sectional area are suspended as shown in the figure. Their Young's moduli are $Y_1$ and $Y_2$. What is their equivalent Young's modulus?

$A$ metal string $A$ is suspended from a rigid support and its free end is attached to a block of mass $M$. $A$ second block having mass $2M$ is suspended at the bottom of the first block using a string $B$. The area of cross-sections of strings $A$ and $B$ are the same. The ratio of lengths of strings $A$ to $B$ is $2$ and the ratio of their Young's moduli $(Y_A/Y_B)$ is $0.5$. The ratio of elongations in $A$ to $B$ is . . . . . . .
