JEE Main & Advanced Physics Elasticity Question Bank Youngs Modulus and Breaking Stress

  • question_answer
    A steel wire of lm long and \[1\,m{{m}^{2}}\] cross section area is hang from rigid end. When weight of 1kg is hung from it then change in length will be (given \[Y=2\times {{10}^{11}}N/{{m}^{2}})\]    [RPMT 2000]

    A) 0.5 mm

    B)                      0.25 mm

    C)             0.05 mm

    D)                      5 mm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    \[l=\frac{MgL}{YA}=\frac{1\times 10\times 1}{2\times {{10}^{11}}\times {{10}^{-6}}}=0.05\ mm\]
