$A$ 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 $(Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2, \alpha = 10^{-5} \,^{\circ}C^{-1})$.

Two separate wires $A$ and $B$ are stretched by $2 \, mm$ and $4 \, mm$ respectively,when they are subjected to a force of $2 \, N$. Assume that both the wires are made up of the same material and the radius of wire $B$ is $4$ times that of the radius of wire $A$. The lengths of the wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio of $a : b$. Then $a / b$ can be expressed as $1 / x$ where $x$ is:

$A$ mild steel wire of length $2l$ meter and cross-sectional area $A \; m^2$ is fixed horizontally between two pillars. $A$ small mass $m \; kg$ is suspended from the midpoint of the wire. If the extension in the wire is within the elastic limit,then the depression $x$ at the midpoint of the wire will be:

Two wires of diameter $0.25 \; cm,$ one made of steel and the other made of brass,are loaded as shown in the figure. The unloaded length of the steel wire is $1.5 \; m$ and that of the brass wire is $1.0 \; m.$ Compute the elongations of the steel and the brass wires. (Given: Young's modulus of steel $Y_s = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \; Pa,$ Young's modulus of brass $Y_b = 0.91 \times 10^{11} \; Pa$)
