To break a wire of 1 m length, minimum 40 kg weight is required. Then, the wire of the same material of double radius and 6 m length will require breaking weight.

The breaking force for a wire of diameter D of a material is F. The breaking force for a wire of the same material of radius D is

A force F is applied on the wire of radius r and length L and change in the length of wire is l . If the same force F is applied on the wire of the same material and radius 2r and length 2L. Then the change in length of the other wire is

The resistance of a wire of length 40 m and radius o.25 mm is 10 Omega . The conductivity of the material of the wire is

A cylindrical wire of length L and radius r has a resistance R. The resistance of another wire of the same material but half its length and half its radius will be:

The breaking stress of a wire of length L and radius r is 5 kg-wt//m^(2) . The wire of length 2l and radius 2r of the same material will have breaking stress in kg-wt//m^(2)

A wire can be broken by 400kg.wt . The load required to break the wire of double the thickness of the same material will be (in kgwt .)

The breaking stress for a wire of radius r of given material is F N//m^(2) . The breaking stress for the wire of same material of radius 2r is:

The length of a copper wire increases by 0.01 metre, when it is loaded with 10 kg weight. Another copper wire of the same length but double the radius is loaded with the same weight. The increase in length of the second wire, in metre, will be

A wire can be broken by applying a load of 15 kg wt. The force required to break the wire of the same length and material but of twice the diameter of the wire will be
