When a wire is stretched by a mass of 5 kg the wire elongates by 0.5mm. Calculate the work done in stretching the wire.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To calculate the work done in stretching the wire, follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Mass (m) = 5 kg - Elongation (ΔL) = 0.5 mm ### Step 2: Convert elongation to meters Since the elongation is given in millimeters, we need to convert it to meters for consistency in SI units. ...
