A wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is clamped rigidly at one end. When the other end of the wire is pulled by a force $F$, its length increases by $5\,cm$. Another wire of the same material of length $4 L$ and radius $4\,r$ is pulled by a force $4\,F$ under same conditions. The increase in length of this wire is $....cm$.

    In an experiment to determine the Young's modulus, steel wires of five different lengths $(1,2,3,4$ and $5\,m )$ but of same cross section $\left(2\,mm ^{2}\right)$ were taken and curves between extension and load were obtained. The slope (extension/load) of the curves were plotted with the wire length and the following graph is obtained. If the Young's modulus of given steel wires is $x \times 10^{11}\,Nm ^{-2}$, then the value of $x$ is

    Young’s moduli of two wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $7 : 4$. Wire $A$ is $2\, m$ long and has radius $R$. Wire $A$ is $2\, m$ long and has radius $R$. Wire $B$ is $1.5\, m$ long and has radius $2\, mm$. If the two wires stretch by the same length for a given load, then the value of $R$ is close to ......... $mm$

    Two separate wires $A$ and $B$ are stretched by $2 \,mm$ and $4\, mm$ respectively, when they are subjected to a force of $2\, N$. Assume that both the wires are made up of same material and the radius of wire $B$ is 4 times that of the radius of wire $A$. The length of the wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio of $a : b$. Then $a / b$ can be expressed as $1 / x$ where $x$ is

    Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. The first wire has cross-sectional area $A$ and the second wire has cross-sectional area $3A$. If the length of the first wire is increased by $\Delta l$ on applying a force $F$, how much force is needed to stretch the second wire by the same amount?
