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 radii and are subjected to the same tensile force. If the extensions produced are and respectively, the ratio is:
rβ/rβ
rβΒ²/rβΒ²
rβΒ²/rβΒ²
rβ/rβ
Rigidity modulus is defined as the ratio of:
Tensile stress to tensile strain
Compressive stress to compressive strain
Shearing stress to shearing strain
Longitudinal stress to longitudinal strain
A material with a high rigidity modulus will:
Easily deform under shear stress
Resist deformation under tensile stress only
Resist deformation under compressive stress only
Resist deformation under shear stress
Which of the following is less likely to be affected by the rigidity modulus of a material?
Twisting a metal rod
Bending a metal beam
Stretching a rubber band
Shearing a block of wood
