A wire of length L and cross-sectional area A is stretched by a force F. If Young's modulus of the material of the wire is Y, the elongation produced in the wire is:
FL/AY
YA/FL
AY/FL
FL/2AY
Two wires of the same material and length but different cross-sectional areas A1 and A2 (A1 > A2) are subjected to the same tensile force. Which wire will experience a greater elongation?
The wire with cross-sectional area A1
The wire with cross-sectional area A2
Both wires will experience the same elongation
The elongation depends on the density of the material
If the length of a wire is doubled and its radius is halved, keeping the force constant, how does the elongation change?
Increases by 2 times
Increases by 4 times
Increases by 8 times
Remains the same
Which of the following materials generally has the highest Young's modulus?
Rubber
Plastic
Steel
Copper
A metal wire of Young's modulus undergoes a strain of . What is the energy stored per unit volume in the wire?
10^4 J/m^3
10^5 J/m^3
10^6 J/m^3
10^7 J/m^3
Which of the following materials is likely to have the highest Young's modulus?
Rubber
Plastic
Steel
Sponge
