When a force is applied along the length of the wire

A copper wire and steel wire both have the same length and radius are joined end to end, when the composite wire is hung from a rigid support, and the load attached at the free end, the increase in the length is found to be 1cm. Find the increase in length of copper steel wire. (Y for copper = 1.2 xx 10^11 N//m^2 , Y for steel = 2.1 xx 10^11 N//m^2)

Choose correct alternative. Two wires of same material and same length are connected in series. The area of cross section of wires is in ratio 3:1 . The resistance of thicker wire is 10 Omega . The total resistance of combination is

A copper wire and a steel wire of same length and same cross-section are joined end to end. The compositive wire is hung from a rigid support and a load is suspended form the free end. The increase in length of the compositive wire is 4 mm. The increase in copper wire will be (Y_(copper)=1.2xx10^(11)N//m^(2),Y_(steel)=2xx10^(11)N//m^(2))

Two wires A and B are of the same material. Their lengths are in the ratio 1 : 2 and the diameter are in the ratio 2 : 1. If they are pulled by the same force, then increase in length will be in the ratio

Two wires P and Q are of the same diameter and having their lengths in the ratio 5:3 , when the wires are subjected to the some load, the corresponding extensions are in the ratio 4:3 . Compare Young's Modulus of the materials P and Q.

A composite wire is prepared by joining a tungsten wire and steel wire Both the wires are of the same length and same area of cross section. If this composite wire is suspended to a rigid support and a force is applied to its free end, it gets extended by 3.25 mm. Calculate the increase in length of tungsten wire and steel wire separately.
