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.

Two coils are connected in series in one gap of metre bridge and null point is obtained at the middle of wire by putting 50 ohm resistance in other gap. The two coils are then connected in parallel and it is found that resistance in the other gap has to be decreased by 38 Omega to get the null point at same place as before. Find the resistance of each coil

Two wires of the same material and the same cross section are stretched on a sonometer in seccuession. Length of one wire is 60 cm and that of the other is 30 cm. An unknown load is applied to the first wire and second wire is loaded with 1.5 kg. if both the wires vibrate with the same fundamental frequencies, calculate the unknown load.

Apparatus: Bars of stainless steel, aluminium and copper, a candle, a burner, pins, etc. : Procedure: Take stainless steel (or iron), copper and aluminium bars, each about 30 cm long and having the same shape. Apply wax spots with the help of candle at a distance of 2 cm from each other on all the three bars. Stick a pin in each of these spots so that it is upright. Now insert the ends of all three bars into a flame at the same time. for a while. What do you see? From which bar do the pins start falling first? Why?
