c $\mathrm{y}=\frac{\mathrm{Fl}}{\alpha \Delta \mathrm{l}}$ or $\Delta \mathrm{l} \propto \frac{1}{\alpha} ; \Delta 1 \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{D}^{2}}$
$\frac{\Delta \mathrm{l}_{2}}{\Delta \mathrm{l}_{1}}=\frac{\mathrm{D}_{1}^{2}}{\mathrm{D}_{2}^{2}}=4$ or $\Delta \mathrm{l}_{2}=4 \Delta \mathrm{l}_{1}=4 \mathrm{cm}$

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 wire of cross-sectional area $3\,m{m^2}$ is first stretched between two fixed points at a temperature of $20°C$. Determine the tension when the temperature falls to $10°C$. Coefficient of linear expansion $\alpha = {10^{ - 5}} { ^\circ}{C^{ - 1}}$ and $Y = 2 \times {10^{11}}\,N/{m^2}$ ........ $N$
A load of $2 \,kg$ produces an extension of $1 \,mm$ in a wire of $3 \,m$ in length and $1 \,mm$ in diameter. The Young's modulus of wire will be $..........Nm ^{-2}$
A sphere contracts in volume by $0.01 \%$ when taken to the bottom of sea $1 \,km$ deep. Find Bulk modulus of the material of sphere ........... $N / m ^2$
A steel ring of radius $r$ and cross-section area $‘A’$ is fitted on to a wooden disc of radius $R(R > r)$. If Young's modulus be $E,$ then the force with which the steel ring is expanded is
The adjacent graph shows the extension $(\Delta l)$ of a wire of length $1m$ suspended from the top of a roof at one end with a load $W$ connected to the other end. If the cross sectional area of the wire is ${10^{ - 6}}{m^2},$ calculate the young’s modulus of the material of the wire
Three bars having length $l, 2l$ and $3l$ and area of cross-section $A, 2 A$ and $3 A$ are joined rigidly end to end. Compound rod is subjected to a stretching force $F$. The increase in length of rod is (Young's modulus of material is $Y$ and bars are massless)
Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. The first wire has cross-sectional area $A$ and the second wire has cross-sectional area $3A$. If the length of the first wire is increased by $\Delta l$ on applying a force $F$, how much force is needed to stretch the second wire by the same amount?
A bar of cross-sectional area $A$ is subjected two equal and opposite tensile forces at its ends as shown in figure. Consider a plane $BB'$ making an angle $\theta $ with the length The ratio of tensile stress to the shearing stress on the plane $BB'$ is
