The Young's modulus of a wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is $Y$. If the length is reduced to $\frac{L}{2}$ and radius is $\frac{r}{2}$ , then the Young's modulus will be
How much force is required to produce an increase of $0.2\%$ in the length of a brass wire of diameter $0.6\, mm$ (Young’s modulus for brass = $0.9 \times {10^{11}}N/{m^2}$)
A uniform cubical block is subjected to volumetric compression, which decreases its each side by $2 \%$. The Bulk strain produced in it is ............
A uniform wire (Young's modulus $2 \times 10^{11}\, Nm^{-2}$ ) is subjected to longitudinal tensile stress of $5 \times 10^7\,Nm^{-2}$ . If the over all volume change in the wire is $0.02\%,$ the fractional decrease in the radius of the wire is close to
For a constant hydraulic stress on an object, the fractional change in the object's volume $\left( {\frac{{\Delta V}}{V}} \right)$ and its bulk modulus $(B)$ are related as
If $\rho $ is the density of the material of a wire and $\sigma $ is breaking stress, the greatest length of the wire that can hang freely without breaking is
Consider the situation shown in figure. The force $F$ is equal to the $m_2g/2.$ If the area of cross-section of the string is $A$ and its Young's modulus $Y$, find the strain developed in it. The string is light and there is no friction anywhere
Two persons pull a wire towards themselves. Each person exerts a force of $200 \mathrm{~N}$ on the wire. Young's modulus of the material of wire is $1 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{~m}^{-2}$. Original length of the wire is $2 \mathrm{~m}$ and the area of cross section is $2 \mathrm{~cm}^2$. The wire will extend in length by . . . . . . . .$\mu \mathrm{m}$.
