Q. No.The Young's modulus of a wire is \(Y.\) If the energy per unit volume is \(E,\) then the strain will be:
1. \(\sqrt{\frac{2E}{Y}}\)
2. \(\sqrt{2EY}\)
3. \(EY\)
4. \(\frac{E}{Y}\)
On withdrawing the external applied force on bodies within the elastic limit, the body:
| 1. | regains its previous state very quickly |
| 2. | regains its previous state after some time |
| 3. | regains its previous state after a very long time |
| 4. | does not regain its previous state |
| 1. | zero | 2. | \(\frac{2W}{A}\) |
| 3. | \(\frac{W}{A}\) | 4. | \(\frac{W}{2A}\) |
Two wires of copper having length in the ratio of \(4:1\) and radii ratio of \(1:4\) are stretched by the same force. The ratio of longitudinal strain in the two will be:
| 1. | \(1:16\) | 2. | \(16:1\) |
| 3. | \(1:64\) | 4. | \(64:1\) |
Hooke's law is applicable for:
| 1. | elastic materials only | 2. | plastic materials only |
| 3. | elastomers only | 4. | all of these |
A ball falling into a lake of depth \(200~\text{m}\) shows a \(0.1\%\) decrease in its volume at the bottom. What is the bulk modulus of the material of the ball?
1. \(19.6\times 10^{8}~\text{N/m}^2\)
2. \(19.6\times 10^{-10}~\text{N/m}^2\)
3. \(19.6\times 10^{10}~\text{N/m}^2\)
4. \(19.6\times 10^{-8}~\text{N/m}^2\)
The stress versus strain graph is shown for two wires. If \(Y_1\) and \(Y_2\) are Young modulus of wire \(A\) and \(B\) respectively, then the correct option is:
| 1. | \(Y_1>Y_2\) | 2. | \(Y_2>Y_1\) |
| 3. | \(Y_1=Y_2\) | 4. | cannot say |
The breaking stress of a wire depends upon:
| 1. | material of the wire. |
| 2. | length of the wire. |
| 3. | radius of the wire. |
| 4. | shape of the cross-section. |
The edge of an aluminum cube is \(10~\text{cm}\) long. One face of the cube is firmly fixed to a vertical wall. A mass of \(100~\text{kg}\) is then attached to the opposite face of the cube. The shear modulus of aluminum is \(25~\text{GPa}.\) What is the vertical deflection of this face?
1. \(4.86\times 10^{-6}~\text{m}\)
2. \(3.92\times 10^{-7}~\text{m}\)
3. \(3.01\times 10^{-7}~\text{m}\)
4. \(6.36\times 10^{-7}~\text{m}\)
| Assertion (A): | The stretching of a spring is determined by the shear modulus of the material of the spring. |
| Reason (R): | A coil spring of copper has more tensile strength than a steel spring of the same dimensions. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
| 4. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
