    At \[40{}^\text{o}C,\]a brass wire of 1 mm radius is hung from the ceiling. A small mass, M is hung from the free end of the wire. When the wire is cooled down from \[40{}^\text{o}C\]to \[20{}^\text{o}C\] it regains its original length of 0.2 m. The value of M is close to : (Coefficient of linear expansion and Young's modulus of brass are \[{{10}^{5}}/{}^\text{o}C\] and \[{{10}^{11}}N/{{m}^{2}},\] respectively; \[g=10\,m{{s}^{-2}}\])       [JEE Main Held on 12-4-2019 Morning]

    A)  \[1.5\,kg\]         

    B)       \[9\text{ }kg\]

    C)  \[0.9\text{ }kg\]            

    D)       \[0.5\text{ }kg\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[Mg=\left( \frac{Ay}{\ell } \right)\Delta \ell \]          \[\frac{\Delta \ell }{\ell }=\alpha \Delta T\]
    \[Mg=(Ay)\alpha \Delta T=2\pi \]
    It is closest to 9.
