The ratio of radii of two wires of same material is 1:3. Then the ratio of their elongations on applying the same load is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
0.375694444
The question is incomplete and does not provide enough information to determine the ratio of elongations. It needs additional information such as the applied load, length, and Young's modulus to calculate the elongations and their ratio.

Young's modulus of the material of a wire of length and radius is . If the length is reduced to and radius to , the Young's modulus will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Option A () is correct because Young's modulus is a material property and does not depend on the dimensions of the wire.

When a force is applied at one end of an elastic wire, it produces a strain in the wire. If is the Young's modulus of the material of the wire, the amount of energy stored per unit volume of the wire is given by
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Option D, , is correct because it represents the energy stored per unit volume in an elastic material, derived from the area under the stress-strain curve.

The value of modulus of rigidity for ideal liquid is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
0
Option A (0) is correct because an ideal liquid cannot resist shear stress, hence its modulus of rigidity is zero.

A long piece of rubber is wider than it is thick. When is is stretched in length by some amount:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
Both its thickness and width decrease
Option D (Both its thickness and width decrease) is correct because when a rubber piece is stretched, its dimensions perpendicular to the direction of the force decrease due to Poisson's effect.

According to Hooke’s law of elasticity, if stress is increased, them the ratio of stress to strain
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Remains constant
Option B (Remains constant) is correct because Hooke's law states that the ratio of stress to strain is constant within the elastic limit.

The Young's modulus of a wire is numerically equal to the stress which will
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
double the length of the wire
Option B (double the length of the wire) is correct because when stress equals Young's modulus, strain equals 1, meaning the length doubles.

A steel wire is long and in area of crosssection. If it takes to stretch this wire by , how much force will be required to stretch a wire of the same material as well diameter from its normal length of to a length of ?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
400
The correct answer is 400 because the force required is proportional to the change in length and inversely proportional to the original length.

Two forces and are applied on two rods and of same materials such that elongation in rods are same. If ratio of their radii is : and ratio of length is , then ratio of is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Option B is correct. The ratio of forces is derived from the Young's modulus formula, considering the same elongation and different radii and lengths of the rods.

If to break a wire of length, minimum -wt is required, then to break a wire of same material in length and double in radius, the breaking weight required will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
-wt
Option C (-wt) is correct because the breaking force is proportional to the cross-sectional area, which is proportional to the square of the radius.

A wire of length '' is clamped horizontally between two fixed support. A mass is hanged from middle of wire. The vertical and depression in wire (in ) in equilibrium is (Young modulus of wire , cross-sectional area )
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
5
Option A is correct. The vertical depression in the wire is calculated using the formula for the sag of a wire under its own weight, considering Young's modulus and the wire's properties.
