The Bulk modulus for an incompressible liquid is
1. Zero
2. Unity
3. Infinity
4. Between 0 to 1
The ratio of lengths of two rods \(A\) and \(B\) of the same material is \(1:2\) and the ratio of their radii is \(2:1\). The ratio of modulus of rigidity of \(A\) and \(B\) will be:
1. | \(4:1\) | 2. | \(16:1\) |
3. | \(8:1\) | 4. | \(1:1\) |
When a spiral spring is stretched by suspending a load on it, the strain produced is called:
1. | Shearing |
2. | Longitudinal |
3. | Volume |
4. | shearing and longitudinal |
The Young's modulus of the material of a wire is \(6\times 10^{12}~\text{N/m}^2\) and there is no transverse strain in it, then its modulus of rigidity will be:
1. \(3\times 10^{12}~\text{N/m}^2\)
2. \(2\times 10^{12}~\text{N/m}^2\)
3. \(10^{12}~\text{N/m}^2\)
4. None of the above
A cube of aluminium of sides \(0.1~\text{m}\) is subjected to a shearing force of \(100\) N. The top face of the cube is displaced through \(0.02\) cm with respect to the bottom face. The shearing strain would be:
1. \(0.02\)
2. \(0.1\)
3. \(0.005\)
4. \(0.002\)
Shearing stress causes a change in-
1. Length
2. Breadth
3. Shape
4. Volume
One end of a uniform wire of length \(L\) and of weight \(W\) is attached rigidly to a point in the roof and a weight \(W_1\) is suspended from its lower end. If \(S\) is the area of cross-section of the wire, the stress in the wire at a height \(\frac{3L}{4}\) from its lower end is:
1. \(\frac{W_1}{S}\)
2. \(\frac{W_1+\left(\frac{W}{4}\right)}{S}\)
3. \(\frac{W_1+\left(\frac{3W}{4}\right)}{S}\)
4. \(\frac{W_1+W}{S}\)
The strain-stress curves of three wires of different materials are shown in the figure. \(P\), \(Q\) and \(R\) are the elastic limits of the wires. The figure shows that:
1. | Elasticity of wire \(P\) is maximum. |
2. | Elasticity of wire \(Q\) is maximum. |
3. | Tensile strength of \(R\) is maximum. |
4. | None of the above is true. |
The adjacent graph shows the extension of a wire of length 1m suspended from the top of a roof at one end with a load W connected to the other end. If the cross sectional area of the wire is calculate the young’s modulus of the material of the wire

The diagram shows stress v/s strain curve for the materials A and B. From the curves we infer that
1. A is brittle but B is ductile
2. A is ductile and B is brittle
3. Both A and B are ductile
4. Both A and B are brittle
