    If in a wire of Youngs modulus Y, longitudinal strain X is produced, then the value of potential energy stored in its unit volume will be:

    A) \[0.5Y{{X}^{2}}\]

    B)  \[0.5{{Y}^{2}}X\]

    C) \[2Y{{X}^{2}}\]

    D)  \[Y{{X}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Given : Youngs modulus = Y Longitudinal strain =X The potential energy stored is given by \[=\frac{1}{2}\times stress\times strain\] \[=\frac{1}{2}\times Y\times X\times X\] \[=\frac{1}{2}Y\,{{X}^{2}}\](\[\because \]stress \[=Y\times \]strain) \[=0.5Y{{X}^{2}}\]
