    A metallic wire of length L, area of cross-section A is suspended by attaching some wieght to it. If alpha is the longitudinal strain and Y is Young's modulus, find the ratio between elastic potential energy and the elastic energy density.

    The strain energy per unit volume of a stretched wire is

    Assertion If length of a wire is halved, its Young's modulus of elasticity will become two times. Reason The ratio of longitudinal stress and longitudinal strain is called Young's modulus of elasticity.
