Two rods of copper and steel having same area of cross - section but different lengths and respectively are connected to each other. The combined length of two rods fits between two walls without any stress on walls. If and are their coefficient of linear expansion, and are their Young's modulus respectively, then (There is no buckling of rods while heating) With increase in temperature:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
combined length remains while length of one rod increases and that of other decreases
Option D is correct because the combined length remains due to the rigid walls, but the individual lengths change, with one increasing and the other decreasing to maintain the overall length.

A wire is stretched under a force. If the wire suddenly snaps the temperature of the wire
The increases in length is of a wire of length by the longitudinal stress. Then the stress is proportional to
A steel wire of length and cross sectional area is stretched by under a given load. When the same load is applied to another steel wire of double its length and half of its cross section area, the amount of stretching (extension) is
Assertion: From the relation we can say that, if length of a wire is doubled, its Young's modulus of elasticity will also becomes two times.
Reason: Modulus of elasticity is a material property. A wire can be broken by applying a load of 200 N. The force required to break another wire of the same length and same material, but double in diameter, is Assertion(A): If radius of cylindrical wire is doubled, then this wire can bear four times stress.
Reason(R): By doubling the radius, area of cross-section will become four times.
