In an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire of length exactly $1\;m$,the extension in the length of the wire is measured as $0.4\;mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.02\;mm$ when a load of $1\;kg$ is applied. The diameter of the wire is measured as $0.4\;mm$ with an uncertainty of $\pm 0.01\;mm$. The error in the measurement of Young's modulus $(\Delta Y)$ is found to be $x \times 10^{10}\;N/m^2$. The value of $x$ is (Take $g = 10\;m/s^2$)

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 $.00$)

If the ratio of diameters,lengths and Young's moduli of steel and brass wires shown in the figure are $p, q$ and $r$ respectively,then the corresponding ratio of increase in their lengths would be

Two similar wires under the same load yield elongations of $0.1 \ mm$ and $0.05 \ mm$ respectively. If the area of cross-section of the first wire is $4 \ mm^2$,then the area of cross-section of the second wire is..... $mm^2$.

Consider the situation shown in the figure. The force $F$ is equal to $m_2g/2$. If the area of cross-section of the string is $A$ and its Young's modulus is $Y$,find the strain developed in it. The string is light and there is no friction anywhere.
