A wire is suspended from the ceiling and stretched under the action of weight F suspended from its other end. The force exerted by the ceiling on it is equal and opposite to the weight.

A light rod of length 4.0 m is suspended from the ceiling horizontally by means of two vertical wire of equal length tied to its ends. One of the wires is made of steel and is of cross-section 10^(-3)m^(2) and the other is of brass of cross-section 2xx10^(-3)m^(2) . Find out the position along the rod at which a weight may be hung to produce equal stresses in both wires.

Figure shows a 300 kg cylinder that is horizontal. Three steel wires support the cylinder from a ceiling. Wires 1 and 3 are attached at the ends of the cylinder, and wire 2 is attached at the center. The wires each have a cross - sectional area of 2.00xx10^(-6)m^(2) . Initially (before the cylinder was put in place), wires 1 and 3 were 2.0000 m long and wire 2 was 6.00 mm longer than that. Now (with the cylinder in place), all three wires have been stretched. What is the tension in wire 1 (kN) ? (E_("steel")=200xx10^(9)N//m^(2))

A brass wire of cross-sectional area 2mm^(2) is suspended from a rigid support and a body of volume 100cm^(2) is attached to its other end. If the decrases in the length of the wire is 0.11mm , when the body is completely immersed in water, find the natural length of the wire.

A wire suspended vertically from one end is stretched by attaching a weight of 20 N to the lower end. The weight stretches the wire by 1 mm. How much energy is gained by the wire ?

A light rod of length 2 m is suspended from the 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^(2) . The other wire is a brass of cross section 0.2 cm^(2) . A weight is suspended from a certain point of the rod such that equal stress are produced in both the wires. Which of the following are correct?
