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

(1) Non zero constant
(2) Infinite
(3) Zero
(4) Can not be predicted
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. \(0.002\)

To break a wire, a force of is required. If the density of the material is , then the length of the wire which will break by its own weight will be -
(a) 34 m (b) 30 m

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. |
