    If the ratio of lengths, radii and Young's moduli of steel and brass wires in the figure are a, b and c respectively, then the corresponding ratio of increase in their lengths is :             

    A) \[\frac{3c}{2a{{b}^{2}}}\]

    B) \[\frac{2{{a}^{2}}c}{b}\]

    C) \[\frac{3a}{2{{b}^{2}}c}\]

    D) \[\frac{2ac}{{{b}^{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] According to questions, \[\frac{{{\ell }_{s}}}{{{\ell }_{b}}}=a,\frac{{{r}_{s}}}{{{r}_{b}}}=b,\,\frac{{{y}_{s}}}{{{y}_{b}}}=c,\frac{\Delta {{\ell }_{s}}}{\Delta {{\ell }_{b}}}=?\] As, \[y=\frac{F\ell }{A\Delta \ell }\Rightarrow \Delta \ell =\frac{F\ell }{Ay}\] \[\Delta {{\ell }_{s}}=\frac{3mg{{\ell }_{s}}}{\pi r_{s}^{2}.{{y}_{s}}}\,\,\left[ \therefore \,{{F}_{s}}=(M+2M)g \right]\] \[\Delta {{\ell }_{b}}=\frac{2Mg{{\ell }_{b}}}{\pi r_{s}^{2}.{{y}_{b}}}\,\,\,[\because {{F}_{b}}=2Mg]\] \[\therefore \,\,\,\,\frac{\Delta {{\ell }_{s}}}{\Delta {{\ell }_{b}}}=\frac{\frac{3Mg{{\ell }_{s}}}{\pi r_{s}^{2}.{{y}_{s}}}}{\frac{2Mg{{\ell }_{b}}}{\pi r_{b}^{2}.{{y}_{b}}}}=\frac{3a}{2{{b}^{2}}C}\]
