    Two wires of lengths \[l\]and\[2l,\]radii \[r\]and \[2r\] respectively having same Youngs modulus are hung with a weight mg. Net elongation is

    A)  \[\frac{3mgl}{\pi {{r}^{2}}Y}\]                   

    B)  \[\frac{2mgl}{\pi {{r}^{2}}Y}\]

    C)  \[\frac{3mgl}{2\pi {{r}^{2}}Y}\]                 

    D)  \[\frac{5mgl}{4\pi {{r}^{2}}Y}\]

    E)  None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    Youngs modulus, \[Y=\frac{mgl}{{{A}_{1}}{{l}_{1}}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{l}_{1}}=\frac{mgl}{Y\pi {{r}^{2}}}\]                     ?(i) and,       \[Y=\frac{mg\,(2l)}{{{a}_{2}}{{l}_{2}}}=\frac{mg\,(2l)}{\pi {{(2r)}^{2}}{{l}_{2}}}\] or,          \[{{l}_{2}}=\frac{mgl}{2Y\pi {{r}^{2}}}\]                  ?(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we have \[\therefore \]  \[{{l}_{1}}+{{l}_{2}}=\frac{mgl}{Y\pi {{r}^{2}}}+\frac{mgl}{2Y\pi {{r}^{2}}}=\frac{3}{2}\frac{mgl}{Y\pi {{r}^{2}}}\]
