The young's modulus of a wire of length ...

The young's modulus of a wire of length (L) and radius (r ) is Y. If the length is reduced to` L/2` and radius `r/2` , then its young's modulus will be

A

Y/2

B

Y

C

2Y

D

4Y

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

b

Young's modulus depends upon the nature of material and is independent of the dimension of the material.
