(2) 2 cm

(3) 4 cm                                 

(4) 8 cm

(2) Rubber

(3) Steel                             

(4) Quartz

A force \(F\) is needed to break a copper wire having radius \(R.\) The force needed to break a copper wire of radius \(2R\) will be:

The relationship between Young's modulus Y, Bulk modulus K and modulus of rigidity n is

(3)  $Y=\frac{9nK}{3+K}$                                     

(4) $Y=\frac{3nK}{9n+K}$         

The Young's modulus of a rubber string 8 cm long and density $1.5 kg/m^3$ is $5\times {10}^8 N/m^2$, is suspended on the ceiling in a room. The increase in length due to its own weight will be

(1) $9.6\times {10}^{-5} m$                           

(2) $9.6\times {10}^{-11}m$

(3) $9.6\times {10}^{-3} m$                           

(4) 9.6 m

(3) Two times that on A               

(4) Half that on A

If the length of a wire is reduced to half, then it can hold the ......... load

(1) Half                                 

(2) Same

(3) Double                             

(4) One fourth
