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%`?

Which one has more Young's modulus : Copper or Steel?

The radius of a copper wire is twice that of a steel wire. One end of the copper wire is joined with one end of the steel wire and the same tensile force is applied on them . If the length of the copper wire increases by 1% , what will be the percentage increase in the length of the steel wire? Given Young's modulus of steel is twice that of copper.

An iron wire an copper wire having same length and cross-section are suspended form same roof Young's modulus of copper is 1//3rd that of iron. Then the ratio of the weighs to be added at their ends so that their ends are at the same level is

Which has more Young's modulus, a thin steel wire or thick steel wire

A steel wire is stretched by 5k wt . If the radius of the wire is doubled its Young's modulus

A steel wire is stretched by 5 kg wt. If the radius of the wire is doubled its Young's modulus

The Young's modulus of steel is twice that of brass. Two wires of the same length and of the same area of cross section, one of steel and another of brass are suspended from the same roof. If we want the lower ends of the wires to be at the same level, then the weight added to the steel and brass wires must be in the ratio of
