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

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% ?

A light rod of length 2 m is suspended from ceiling horizontally by means of two vertical wires of equal length tied to its ends. One of the wires is made of steel and is of cross-section 0.1 cm sq. and the other of brass of cross-section 0.2 cm sq. Along the rod at what distance a weight may be hung to produce equal stresses in the wires? (Y_("Steel") = 2 xx 10^(11) Nm^(-2), Y_("Bass") = 1 xx 10^(11) Nm^(-2))

Two wires of equal cross section but one made of steel and the other of copper, are joined end to end. When the combination is kept under tension, the elongations in the two wires are found to be equal. Find the ratio of the lengths of the two wires. Young modulus of steel =2.0xx10^11Nm^-2 and that of copper =1.1xx10^11Nm^-2
