The correct Answer is:
To find the Young's modulus of the wire, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the given values to standard units - Length of the wire, \( L = 40.05 \, \text{cm} = 0.4005 \, \text{m} \) - Mass of the wire, \( m = 3.1 \, \text{g} = 3.1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg} \) - Area of cross-section, \( A = 1 \, \text{mm}^2 = 1 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{m}^2 \) - Frequency, \( f = \frac{1000}{64} \, \text{Hz} \) ### Step 2: Calculate the mass per unit length (\( \mu \)) \[ \mu = \frac{m}{L} = \frac{3.1 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg}}{0.4005 \, \text{m}} \approx 7.74 \times 10^{-3} \, \text{kg/m} \] ### Step 3: Use the formula for fundamental frequency The formula for the fundamental frequency is given by: \[ f = \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}} \] Rearranging this to find the tension \( T \): \[ T = (2Lf)^2 \mu \] ### Step 4: Substitute the values into the tension formula First, calculate \( f \): \[ f = \frac{1000}{64} \approx 15.625 \, \text{Hz} \] Now substitute \( L \), \( f \), and \( \mu \) into the tension formula: \[ T = (2 \times 0.4005 \times 15.625)^2 \times (7.74 \times 10^{-3}) \] Calculating \( T \): \[ T \approx (12.500)^2 \times (7.74 \times 10^{-3}) \approx 156.25 \times 7.74 \times 10^{-3} \approx 1.213 \, \text{N} \] ### Step 5: Calculate Young's modulus (\( Y \)) Young's modulus is given by: \[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} = \frac{\frac{T}{A}}{\frac{\Delta L}{L}} \] Where: - Stress \( = \frac{T}{A} \) - Strain \( = \frac{\Delta L}{L} \) Assuming the extension \( \Delta L = 0.05 \, \text{cm} = 0.0005 \, \text{m} \): \[ \text{Strain} = \frac{0.0005}{0.4005} \approx 0.001247 \] Calculating stress: \[ \text{Stress} = \frac{1.213}{1 \times 10^{-6}} = 1.213 \times 10^6 \, \text{N/m}^2 \] ### Step 6: Substitute into Young's modulus formula \[ Y = \frac{1.213 \times 10^6}{0.001247} \approx 9.73 \times 10^8 \, \text{N/m}^2 \] ### Final Answer In the form \( X \times 10^8 \, \text{N/m}^2 \), we find: \[ X \approx 9.73 \]
