If we double the radius of steel wire how will its Young's modulus change?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The Young.s modulus remains unchanged, because it is the property of material. It does not depend upon the dimensions of wire.

A steel wire of mass mu 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 and lateral strains < < longitudinal strains, find the extension in the length of the wire. The density of steel is 7860 kg m^-3 (Young's modulues Y = 2 xx 10^11 N m^-2)
