If the length of a wire is doubled, does its Young's modulus change ? Explain.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the Young's modulus of a wire changes when its length is doubled, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Young's Modulus**: Young's modulus (Y) is defined as the ratio of stress to strain in a material. It is given by the formula: \[ Y = \frac{\text{Stress}}{\text{Strain}} ...
