A student performs an experiment to determine the Young's modulus of a wire, exactly 2m long, by Searle's method. In a particular reading, the student measures the extension in the length of the wire to be 0.8mm with an uncertainty of +- 0.05mm at a load of exactly 1.0kg , the student also measures the diameter of the wire to be 04mm with an uncertainty of +-0.01mm . Take g=9.8m//s^(2) (exact). the Young's modulus obtained from the reading is

(a) A steel wire of mass u per unit length with a circular cross section has a radius of 0.1 cm. The wire is of length 10 m when measured lying horizontal and hangs from a hook on the wall. A mass of 25 kg is hung from the free end of the wire. Assuming the wire to be uniform an lateral strains lt lt longitudinal strains find the extension in the length of the wire. The density of steel is 7860 kgm ^(-3) and Young's modulus =2 xx 10 ^(11) Nm ^(-2) (b) If the yield strength of steel is 2.5 xx 10 ^(8) Nm ^(-2), what is the maximum weight that can be hung at the lower end of the wire ?

Internal micrometer is a measuring intrument used to measure internal diameter (ID) of a large cylinder bore with high accuracy. Construction is shown in figure. There is one fixed rod B (to the right in figure) and one moved rod A (to the left in figure). It is based on the particle of advancement of a screw when it is rotated in a nut with internal threads. Main scale reading can be directly seen on the hub which is fixed with respect to rod B. When the cap is rotated rod A moves in or cut depending on direction of rotation. The circular scale reading is seen by checking which division of circular scale coincide with the references line This is to be multiplied by LC to get circular scale reading. Least count = value of 1 circular scale division = ("pitch")/("number of division on circular scale") Length of rod A is chosen to match the ID(PQ) to be measured. Zero error is checked by taking reading between standard blocks fixed at normal value of ID to be measured. Zero error is positive if cap end is one the right of the main scale and negative it is on the left side. In the above instrument, while measuring an internal diameter. ID is set of 321 mm with no zero error. It cap end is after n^(th) division adn 17^(th) division of main scale coincides with the reference line, the ID is -

In a human pyramid in a circus, the entire weight of the balanced group is supported by the legs of a performer who is lying on his back. The combined mass of all the persons performing the act, and the tables, plaques etc. involved is 280 kg. The mass of the performer lying on his back at the bottom of the pyramid is 60 kg. Each thighbone (femur) of this performer has a length of 50 cm and an effective radius of 2.0 cm. Determine the amount by which each thighbone gets compressed under the extra load. (g = 9.8 ms ^(-2)) Young's Modulus for bone Y=9.4xx 10 ^(9) Nm^(-2).
