The young's modulus for steel is much more then that for rubber. For the same longitudinal strain, which one will have greater tensil stress ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Y = (stress)/("longitudinal strain"),` i.e., `Y prop` Stress (For same strain)
`:. (Y_s)/(Y_r) = ((stress)_s)/((stress)_r) gt1 ( :. Y_s gt Y_r)`
`:. (stress)_s gt (stress)_r`

A piece of copper wire has twice the radius of a piece of steel wire. Young's modulus for steel is twice that of the copper. One end of the copper wire is joined to one end of the steel wire so that both can be subjected to the same longitudinal force. By what fraction of its length will the steel have stretched when the length of the copper has increased by 1% ?

A steel ring is to be fitted on a wooden disc of radius R and thickness d. The inner radius of the ring is r which is slightly smaller than R. The outer radius of the ring is r + b and its thickness is d (same as the disc). There is no change in value of b and d after the ring is fitted over the disc, only the inner radius becomes R. If the Young’s modulus of steel is Y, calculate the longitudinal stress developed in it. Also calculate the tension force developed in the ring. [Take b lt lt r ]
