When a certain weight is suspended from a long uniform wire, its length increases by one $cm$. If the same weight is suspended from another wire of the same material and length but having a diameter half of the first one, the increase in length will be ......... $cm$
$0.5$
$2$
$4$
$8$
An elastic material of Young's modulus $Y$ is subjected to a stress $S$. The elastic energy stored per unit volume of the material is
Increase in length of a wire is $1\, mm$ when suspended by a weight. If the same weight is suspended on a wire of double its length and double its radius, the increase in length will be ........ $mm$
A uniform wire (Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11}\, Nm^{-2}$ ) is subjected to longitudinal tensile stress of $5 \times 10^7\,Nm^{-2}$ . If the over all volume change in the wire is $0.02\%,$ the fractional decrease in the radius of the wire is close to
Read the following two statements below carefully and state, with reasons, if it is true or false.
$(a)$ The Young’s modulus of rubber is greater than that of steel;
$(b)$ The stretching of a coil is determined by its shear modulus.
A load of $2 \,kg$ produces an extension of $1 \,mm$ in a wire of $3 \,m$ in length and $1 \,mm$ in diameter. The Young's modulus of wire will be .......... $Nm ^{-2}$
