    A and B are two wires. The radius of A is twice that of B. They are stretched by the same load. Then the stress on B is

    A)  equal to that on A  

    B)  four times that on A  

    C)  two times that on A

    D)  half that on A

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Stress \[=\frac{force}{Area}\,\,\therefore Stress\,\propto \frac{1}{\pi {{r}^{2}}}\] \[\frac{{{S}_{B}}}{{{S}_{A}}}={{\left( \frac{{{r}_{A}}}{{{r}_{B}}} \right)}^{2}}={{(2)}^{2}}\Rightarrow {{S}_{B}}=4{{S}_{A}}\]
