MCQ
Longitudinal stress of $1\,kg/m{m^2}$ is applied on a wire. The percentage increase in length is $(Y = {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2})$
  • A
    $0.002$
  • $0.01$
  • C
    $0.003$
  • D
    $0.001$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$0.01$
b
(b) Stress $=1\,kg/m{m^2}=10^6\;kg/m^2=10^7\;N/m^2$

Longitudinal strain $\frac{l}{L} = \frac{{{\rm{stress}}}}{Y} = \frac{{{{10}^7}}}{{{{10}^{11}}}} = {10^{ - 4}}$

Percentage increase in length $ = {10^{ - 4}} \times 100 = 0.01\% $
