The elongation of a wire on the surface of the earth is $10^{-4} \; m$. The same wire of same dimensions is elongated by $6 \times 10^{-5} \; m$ on another planet. The acceleration due to gravity on the planet will be $\dots \; m/s^2$. (Take acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth $= 10 \; m/s^2$)

The force required to stretch a steel wire of $1\,cm^2$ cross-section to $1.1$ times its original length is $(Y = 2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2)$.

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.

Young's modulus depends upon

$A$ horizontal steel railroad track has a length of $100 \, m$ when the temperature is $25^{\circ} C$. The track is constrained from expanding or bending. The stress on the track on a hot summer day,when the temperature is $40^{\circ} C$,is ............. $\times 10^7 \, Pa$. (Note: The linear coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is $1.1 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$ and the Young's modulus of steel is $2 \times 10^{11} \, Pa$.)

$A$ 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 $Y = 2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$.
