Stress required in a wire to produce $0.1\%$ strain is $4 \times 10^8 \, N/m^2$. Its Young's modulus is $Y_1$. If stress required in another wire to produce $0.3\%$ strain is $6 \times 10^8 \, N/m^2$,and its Young's modulus is $Y_2$,which relation is correct?

  • A
    $Y_1 = Y_2$
  • B
    $Y_1 = 2Y_2$
  • C
    $Y_1 = 1.5Y_2$
  • D
    $Y_1 = 3Y_2$

The area of cross-section of the rope used to lift a load by a crane is $2.5 \times 10^{-4} \, m^2$. The maximum lifting capacity of the crane is $10$ metric tons. To increase the lifting capacity of the crane to $25$ metric tons,the required area of cross-section of the rope should be $......... \times 10^{-4} \, m^2$ (take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$).

There is some change in length when a $33000 \,N$ tensile force is applied on a steel rod of area of cross-section $10^{-3} \,m^2$. The change of temperature required to produce the same elongation, if the steel rod is heated, is (The modulus of elasticity is $3 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$ and the coefficient of linear expansion of steel is $1.1 \times 10^{-5} /{ }^{\circ}C$).

The length of a metal wire is $L_1$ when the tension is $T_1$ and $L_2$ when the tension is $T_2$. The unstretched length of the wire is:

$A$ force of $10^3 \ N$ stretches the length of a hanging wire by $1 \ mm$. The force required to stretch a wire of the same material and length,but having four times the diameter,by $1 \ mm$ is:

$A$ student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly $2 \,m$ long, by Searle's method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be $0.8 \,mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.05 \,mm$ at a load of exactly $1.0 \,kg$. The student also measures the diameter of the wire to be $0.4 \,mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01 \,mm$. Take $g=9.8 \,m/s^2$ (exact). The Young's modulus obtained from the reading is
