A substance breaks down by a stress of $10^6 N/m^2$. If the density of the material of the wire is $3×10^3 kg/m^3$, then the length of the wire of the substance which will break under its own weight when suspended vertically, is ......... $m$
The specific heat at constant pressure and at constant volume for an ideal gas are ${C_p}$ and ${C_v}$ and its adiabatic and isothermal elasticities are ${E_\varphi }$ and ${E_\theta }$ respectively. The ratio of ${E_\varphi }$ to ${E_\theta }$ is
Two wires $A$ and $B $ of same length and of the same material have the respective radii ${r_1}$ and ${r_2}$. Their one end is fixed with a rigid support, and at the other end equal twisting couple is applied. Then the ratio of the angle of twist at the end of $A$ and the angle of twist at the end of $B $ will be
A steel rod has a radius $10 \,mm$ and a length of $1.0 \,m$. A force stretches it along its length and produces a strain of $0.32 \%$. Young's modulus of the steel is $2.0 \times 10^{11} \,Nm ^{-2}$. What is the magnitude of the force stretching the rod is ........ $kN$
A wire is suspended by one end. At the other end a weight equivalent to $20\, N$ force is applied. If the increase in length is $1.0\, mm,$ the ratio of the increase in energy of the wire to the decrease in gravitational potential energy when load moves downwards by $1\, mm,$ will be
