$A$ uniform dense rod with non-uniform Young's modulus is hanging from the ceiling under gravity. If the elastic energy density at every point is the same,then how will Young's modulus change with $x$ as shown in the graphs?

What is the velocity of sound in a perfectly rigid rod? Why?

$A$ $500 \,g$ ball is attached to one end of an aluminum wire of area of cross-section $0.5 \,mm^2$ and an unstretched length of $1.4 \,m$. The other end of the wire is fixed to the top of a vertical pole. The ball rotates about the pole in a horizontal plane such that the angle between the wire and the horizontal is $30^{\circ}$. The increase in the length of the wire is . . . . . . $mm$. (Young's modulus of aluminum $= 0.7 \times 10^{11} \,N/m^2$ and acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \,m/s^2$)

Young's modulus of rubber is $10^4 \ N/m^2$ and the area of cross-section is $2 \ cm^2$. If a force of $2 \times 10^5 \ dynes$ is applied along its length,then its initial length $L$ becomes:

$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is rigidly fixed at one end. On stretching the other end of the wire with a force $F$,the increase in length is $l$. If another wire of the same material but double the length and double the radius is stretched with a force $2F$,then the increase in length is:
