A) \[\frac{YA{{x}^{2}}}{2L}\]
B) \[YA{{x}^{2}}L\]
C) \[\frac{YAx}{2L}\]
D) \[\frac{YA{{x}^{2}}}{L}\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
If a force F acts along the length L of the wire of corss-section A and stretches it by \[x,\]then \[Y=\frac{stress}{strain}\] \[=\frac{F/A}{x/L}\] \[\frac{FL}{Ax}\] \[F=\frac{YA}{L}x\] So, the work done for an additional small increase \[dx\]in length Hence the total work done in increasing the length by \[l\] \[W=\int_{0}^{x}{dW=\int_{0}^{x}{Fdx}}\] \[=\int_{0}^{x}{\frac{YA}{L}x.dx}\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\frac{YA}{L}{{x}^{2}}\]
