MCQ
The force constant of a wire does not depend on
  • A
    Nature of the material
  • B
    Radius of the wire
  • C
    Length of the wire
  • None of the above

Answer

Correct option: D.
None of the above
d
(d) $K = \frac{{YA}}{L} = \frac{{Y \times \pi {r^2}}}{L} \Rightarrow K \propto \frac{{Y{r^2}}}{L}$

i.e. force constant of a wire depends on young's modules (nature of the material), radius of the wire and length of the wire.
