The load versus elongation graph of four wires of same length and the same material as shown in the figure. The thinest wire is represented by the line

A

OD

B

OB

C

OC

D

OA

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
As `Y=(Fl)/(ADeltal)`
or `(F("load"))(Deltal("elongation"))=(YA)/l`
or slope `propr^(2)`
or thinnest wire slope is minimum.
i.e. wire D is thinest.
