A
Uncompressible
a (a) $\frac{{dV}}{V} = (1 + 2\sigma )\frac{{dL}}{{dL}}$
if $\sigma = - \frac{1}{2}$ then $\frac{{dV}}{V} = 0 $ i.e. $K = \infty$

The elastic limit of brass is $379\,MPa.$ .......... $mm$ should be the minimum diameter of a brass rod if it is to support a $400\,N$ load without exceeding its elastic limit .
The diameter of a brass rod is 4 mm and Young's modulus of brass is $9 \times {10^{10}}\,N/{m^2}$. The force required to stretch by $0.1\%$ of its length is
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
The mean distance between the atoms of iron is $3 \times {10^{ - 10}}m$ and interatomic force constant for iron is $7\,N\,/m$The Young’s modulus of elasticity for iron is
On increasing the length by $0.5\, mm$ in a steel wire of length $2\, m$ and area of cross-section $2\,m{m^2}$, the force required is $[Y$ for steel$ = 2.2 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2}]$
Increase in length of a wire is $1\, mm$ when suspended by a weight. If the same weight is suspended on a wire of double its length and double its radius, the increase in length will be ........ $mm$
The bulk modulus of rubber is $9.1\times 10^8\,N/m^2$. To ......... $m$ depth a rubber ball be taken in a lake so that its volume is decreased by $0.1\,\%$ .
