When a uniform wire of radius $r$ is stretched by a $2 \, kg$ weight,the increase in its length is $2.00 \, mm$. If the radius of the wire is $r/2$ and other conditions remain the same,the increase in its length is .......... $mm$. (in $.00$)

$A$ steel rod of radius $20 \ mm$ and length $2 \ m$ is acted upon by a force of $400 \ kN$ along its length. The values of stress and strain are respectively $(Y_{\text{steel}} = 2 \times 10^{11} \ N \ m^{-2})$.

Overall changes in volume and radii of a uniform cylindrical steel wire are $0.2 \%$ and $0.002 \%$ respectively when subjected to some suitable force. Calculate the longitudinal tensile stress acting on the wire. (Given: Young's modulus $Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \ N/m^2$)

Four uniform wires of the same material are stretched by the same force. The dimensions of the wires are given below. Which one has the minimum elongation?

What is the effect of change in temperature on the Young's modulus?

Two wires of the same length and radius are joined end-to-end and loaded. The Young's moduli of the materials of the two wires are $Y_{1}$ and $Y_{2}$. If the combination behaves as a single wire,then its equivalent Young's modulus is:
