d $\frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot x ^{2}=\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{ YA }{ L }\cdot x ^{2}$
By energy conservation
$\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{ YA }{ L } \cdot x ^{2}=\frac{1}{2} mv ^{2}$
$\frac{0.5 \times 10^{9} \times 10^{-6} \times(0.04)^{2}}{0.1}=\frac{20}{1000} v ^{2}$
$\therefore \quad v ^{2}=400$
$ v =20 m / s$

A solid sphere of radius $R$ made of of material of bulk modulus $K$ is surrounded by a liquid in a cylindrical container. $A$ massless piston of area $A$ floats on the surface of the liquid. When a mass $m$ is placed on the piston to compress the liquid, the fractional change in the radius of the sphere $\delta R/R$ is
The mass and length of a wire are $M$ and $L$ respectively. The density of the material of the wire is $d$. On applying the force $F$ on the wire, the increase in length is $l$, then the Young's modulus of the material of the wire will be
A steel wire of diameter $2 \,mm$ has a breaking strength of $4 \times 10^5 \,N$.the breaking force ......... $\times 10^5 \,N$ of similar steel wire of diameter $1.5 \,mm$ ?
A metal block of mass $m$ is suspended from a rigid support through a metal wire of diameter $14\,mm$. The tensile stress developed in the wire under equilibrium state is $7 \times 10^5\,Nm ^{-2}$. The value of mass $m$ is $......kg$.
(Take, $g =9.8\,ms ^{-2}$ and $\left.\pi=\frac{22}{7}\right)$
Consider two wires of same material having their ratio of radii to be $2: 1$. If these two wires are stretched by equal force, then the ratio of stress produced in them is
One end of a horizontal thick copper wire of length $2 L$ and radius $2 R$ is welded to an end of another horizontal thin copper wire of length $L$ and radius $R$. When the arrangement is stretched by a applying forces at two ends, the ratio of the elongation in the thin wire to that in the thick wire is :
A wire of length $L,$ area of cross section $A$ is hanging from a fixed support. The length of the wire changes to $L_{1}$ when mass $M$ is suspended from its free end. The expression for Young's modulus is
A uniform metal rod of $2\, mm^2$ cross section fixed between two walls is heated from $0\,^oC$ to $20\,^oC$. The coefficient of linear expansion of rod is $12\times10^{-6}/^oC$. Its Young's modulus of elasticity is $10^{11} \,N/m^2$. The energy stored per unit volume of rod will be ....... $J/m^3$
