The correct Answer is:
To find the force required to increase the length of a steel wire by 0.5 mm, we can use the formula for Young's modulus (Y): \[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} \] Where: - Stress = \(\frac{F}{A}\) (Force per unit area) - Strain = \(\frac{\Delta L}{L_0}\) (Change in length per original length) Given: - Original length, \(L_0 = 2 \, \text{m}\) - Change in length, \(\Delta L = 0.5 \, \text{mm} = 0.5 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m}\) - Area of cross-section, \(A = 2 \, \text{mm}^2 = 2 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2\) - Young's modulus for steel, \(Y = 2.2 \times 10^{11} \, \text{N/m}^2\) ### Step 1: Calculate Strain Strain is calculated as: \[ \text{Strain} = \frac{\Delta L}{L_0} = \frac{0.5 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{m}}{2 \, \text{m}} = 0.25 \times 10^{-3} \] ### Step 2: Rearranging Young's Modulus Formula From the Young's modulus formula, we can rearrange to find the force \(F\): \[ Y = \frac{F/A}{\Delta L/L_0} \implies F = Y \cdot \text{Strain} \cdot A \] ### Step 3: Substitute Values Now substitute the values into the equation: \[ F = 2.2 \times 10^{11} \, \text{N/m}^2 \cdot (0.25 \times 10^{-3}) \cdot (2 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2) \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Force Calculating the force: \[ F = 2.2 \times 10^{11} \cdot 0.25 \times 10^{-3} \cdot 2 \times 10^{-6} \] \[ F = 2.2 \times 0.25 \times 2 \times 10^{11 - 3 - 6} \] \[ F = 1.1 \times 10^{2} \, \text{N} \] \[ F = 110 \, \text{N} \] ### Final Answer The force required to increase the length of the steel wire by 0.5 mm is **110 N**. ---

To find the force required to increase the length of a steel wire by 0.5 mm, we can use the formula for Young's modulus (Y): \[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} \] Where: - Stress = \(\frac{F}{A}\) (Force per unit area) - Strain = \(\frac{\Delta L}{L_0}\) (Change in length per original length) ...
