The diagram shows the change $x$ in the length of a thin uniform wire caused by the application of stress $F$ at two different temperatures $T_1$ and $T_2$. The variations shown suggest that
A wire extends by $1 mm$ when a force is applied. Double the force is applied to another wire of same material and length but half the radius of cross-section. The elongation of the wire in mm will be ........
If average depth of an ocean is $4000 \mathrm{~m}$ and the bulk modulus of water is $2 \times 10^9 \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}$, then fractional compression $\frac{\Delta V}{V}$ of water at the bottom of ocean is $\alpha \times 10^{-2}$. The value of $\alpha$ is ___________(Given, $\mathrm{g}=10 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}, \rho=1000 \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^{-3}$ )
A metal block of mass $m$ is suspended from a rigid support through a metal wire of diameter $14\,mm$. The tensile stress developed in the wire under equilibrium state is $7 \times 10^5\,Nm ^{-2}$. The value of mass $m$ is $......kg$.
(Take, $g =9.8\,ms ^{-2}$ and $\left.\pi=\frac{22}{7}\right)$
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 = $0.9 \times {10^{11}}N/{m^2}$)
One end of a uniform rod of mass $m_1$ and crosssectional area $A$ is hung from a ceiling. The other end of the bar is supporting mass $m_2$. The stress at the midpoint is
A metal wire having Poisson's ratio $1 / 4$ and Young's modulus $8 \times 10^{10} \,N / m ^2$ is stretched by a force, which produces a lateral strain of $0.02 \%$ in it. The elastic potential energy stored per unit volume in wire is $[$in $J / m ^3]$
