Two wires of the same material and same mass are stretched by the same force. Their lengths are in the ratio 2 : 3. Then their elongations are in the ratio

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

4\mathrm{ }:\mathrm{ }9

Option C (

4\mathrm{ }:\mathrm{ }9

) is correct because elongation is proportional to the square of the length when the material, mass, and force are the same.
