The decrease in length of a metal bar of length $L$ and cross-sectional area $A$ when compressed with a load $F$ along its length is (where $Y$ is Young's modulus of the material of the metal bar).

The adjacent graph shows the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1\, m$ suspended from the top of a roof at one end and with a load $W$ connected to the other end. If the cross-sectional area of the wire is $10^{-6}\, m^2$,calculate the Young's modulus of the material of the wire.

The force required to stretch a wire of cross-section $1 \ cm^{2}$ to double its length will be ........ $\times 10^{7} \ N$. (Given Young's modulus of the wire $= 2 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^{2}$)

$A$ 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 the radius of the wire is $1 mm$. Assume that $L \gg$ diameter of the wire. Then the value of $m$ in $kg$ is nearly:
