A compressive force, $F$ is applied at the two ends of a long thin steel rod. It is heated, simultaneously, such that its temperature increases by $\Delta T$. The net change in its length is zero. Let $l$ be the length of the rod, $A$ its area of cross- section, $Y$ its Young's modulus, and $\alpha $ its coefficient of linear expansion. Then, $F$ is equal to
A pan with set of weights is attached with a light spring. When disturbed, the mass-spring system oscillates with a time period of $0.6$ $s.$ When some additional weights are added then time period is $0.7s.$ The extension caused by the additional weights is approximately given by ......... $cm$

A suspended long metal wire is stretched a small distance $x$ by a load $W$ in newton suspended at the other end. Select the best answer out of the following
A structural steel rod has a radius of $10\,mm$ and length of $1.0\,m.$ A $100\,kN$ force stretches it along its length . Young's modulus of structural steel is $2 \times 10^{11}\,Nm^{-2}.$ The percentage strain is about ....... $\%$
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. Longitudinal tensile stress acting on the wire is ($Y = 2.0 × 10^{11} Nm^{-2}$)
