    The following four wires are made of the same material. Which of these will have the largest extension when the same tension is applied? [NEET 2013]

    A) Length = 50 cm, diameter = 0.5 mm

    B) Length = 100 cm, diameter = 1 mm

    C) Length = 200 cm, diameter = 2 mm

    D) Length = 300 cm, diameter = 3 mm

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\Delta L=\frac{FL}{AY}\] or \[\Delta L\propto \frac{L}{{{d}^{2}}}\]  \[\left[ \because A=\frac{\pi {{d}^{2}}}{4} \right]\]
    Therefore, \[\Delta L\] will be maximum for that wire which \[\frac{L}{A}\] is maximum.
