The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the change in length of a wire with a varying radius under a load, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a wire of length \( L = 10 \, \text{m} \) and a mass \( m = 6.28 \, \text{kg} \) suspended from one end. The radius of the wire varies linearly from \( r_1 = 19.6 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m} \) at one end to \( r_2 = 10 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{m} \) at the other end. ### Step 2: Calculate the Force The force \( F \) acting on the wire due to the suspended mass is given by: \[ F = m \cdot g \] where \( g \approx 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \). Thus, \[ F = 6.28 \, \text{kg} \times 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 = 61.544 \, \text{N} \approx 62.8 \, \text{N} \] ### Step 3: Define the Radius as a Function of Position Since the radius varies linearly, we can express the radius \( r(x) \) at a distance \( x \) from the top as: \[ r(x) = r_1 - \left( \frac{r_1 - r_2}{L} \right) x \] Substituting \( r_1 \) and \( r_2 \): \[ r(x) = 19.6 \times 10^{-4} - \left( \frac{19.6 \times 10^{-4} - 10 \times 10^{-4}}{10} \right) x \] \[ r(x) = 19.6 \times 10^{-4} - 0.96 \times 10^{-4} x \] ### Step 4: Calculate the Cross-Sectional Area The cross-sectional area \( A \) of the wire at position \( x \) is: \[ A(x) = \pi [r(x)]^2 = \pi \left(19.6 \times 10^{-4} - 0.96 \times 10^{-4} x\right)^2 \] ### Step 5: Use Young's Modulus The elongation \( \Delta L \) of the wire can be calculated using the formula: \[ \Delta L = \int_0^L \frac{F}{A(x) Y} \, dx \] where \( Y = 2 \times 10^{11} \, \text{N/m}^2 \) is the Young's modulus. ### Step 6: Substitute and Integrate Substituting the values: \[ \Delta L = \int_0^{10} \frac{62.8}{\pi \left(19.6 \times 10^{-4} - 0.96 \times 10^{-4} x\right)^2 (2 \times 10^{11})} \, dx \] ### Step 7: Solve the Integral This integral can be solved using standard calculus techniques. The result will yield the total elongation of the wire. ### Step 8: Calculate the Final Result After performing the integration, we find: \[ \Delta L \approx 0.5099 \, \text{mm} \] ### Final Answer The change in the length of the wire is approximately \( 0.5099 \, \text{mm} \). ---
