There are two wires of the same material and same length. If the diameter of the second wire is two times the diameter of the first wire,then the ratio of the extension produced in the wires by applying the same load will be:

  • A
    $1 : 1$
  • B
    $2 : 1$
  • C
    $1 : 2$
  • D
    $4 : 1$

The length of a light string is $1.4 \ m$ when the tension on it is $5 \ N$. If the tension increases to $7 \ N$,the length of the string is $1.56 \ m$. The original length of the string is . . . . . . $m$.

$A$ wire is loaded by $6 \ kg$ at its one end,the increase in length is $12 \ mm$. If the radius of the wire is doubled and all other magnitudes are unchanged,then the increase in length will be ......... $mm$.

$A$ wire is stretched $1 \ mm$ by a force $F$. If a second wire of same material,same length and $4$ times the diameter of the first wire is stretched by the same force $F$,then the elongation of the second wire is

Two wires of the same material have lengths in the ratio $1:2$ and diameters in the ratio $2:1$. If they are stretched by forces $F_A$ and $F_B$ respectively to produce the same extension,then the ratio $\frac{F_A}{F_B}$ is:
