    A wire can be broken by applying load of 200 N. The force required to break another wire of the same length and same material, but double in diameter is

    A)  200 N          

    B)                         400 N                   

    C)  600 N                   

    D)         800N

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Yaungs modulus \[Y=\frac{FL}{Al}\] or \[F=\frac{YAl}{L}\] or\[F\propto A\]or\[F\propto {{r}^{2}}\]or\[F\propto {{d}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{F}_{1}}}{{{F}_{2}}}=\frac{d_{1}^{2}}{d_{2}^{2}}\] Given, \[{{d}_{1}}=d,\]\[{{d}_{2}}=2d,\]\[{{F}_{1}}=200\,N\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{200}{{{F}_{2}}}=\frac{{{(d)}^{2}}}{{{(2d)}^{2}}}=\frac{1}{4}\] or            \[{{F}_{2}}=4\times 200=800N\]
