The correct Answer is:
To find the Young's modulus (Y) of the wire given the elongation, cross-sectional area, and tension, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given data - Elongation percentage: \(0.1\%\) - Cross-sectional area \(A = 10^{-6} \, m^2\) - Tension (Force) \(F = 100 \, N\) ### Step 2: Convert elongation percentage to a decimal The elongation percentage is given as \(0.1\%\). To convert this to a decimal form: \[ \frac{\Delta L}{L} = \frac{0.1}{100} = 0.001 = 1 \times 10^{-3} \] ### Step 3: Use the formula for Young's modulus The formula for Young's modulus \(Y\) is: \[ Y = \frac{F}{A \cdot \frac{\Delta L}{L}} \] Where: - \(F\) is the force applied, - \(A\) is the cross-sectional area, - \(\frac{\Delta L}{L}\) is the fractional elongation. ### Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula Substituting the known values into the Young's modulus formula: \[ Y = \frac{100 \, N}{10^{-6} \, m^2 \cdot 1 \times 10^{-3}} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression Calculating the denominator: \[ 10^{-6} \, m^2 \cdot 1 \times 10^{-3} = 10^{-9} \, m^2 \] Now substituting this back into the equation for \(Y\): \[ Y = \frac{100}{10^{-9}} = 100 \times 10^{9} \, N/m^2 \] ### Step 6: Final result Thus, the Young's modulus \(Y\) is: \[ Y = 10^{11} \, N/m^2 \] ### Summary The Young's modulus of the wire is \(Y = 10^{11} \, N/m^2\). ---
