$A$ wire is suspended from a rigid support and a weight $W$ is attached to its free end,causing an extension of $1.0 \, mm$. If the same wire is passed over a pulley and a weight $W$ is attached to each of its two ends,what will be the extension in the wire in $mm$?

Two metal wires $A$ and $B$ have lengths $L$ and $3L$ respectively. The radii of the cross-sectional circular areas of wires $A$ and $B$ are $R$ and $2R$, respectively. These wires are joined end-to-end along their axis. When one end of the combined system is fixed and the other end is pulled with a constant force $F$, the elongation in both wires is equal. If $Y_A$ and $Y_B$ are the Young's moduli of wires $A$ and $B$, respectively, then the ratio $Y_B / Y_A$ is:

One end of a horizontal thick copper wire of length $2L$ and radius $2R$ is welded to an end of another horizontal thin copper wire of length $L$ and radius $R$. When the arrangement is stretched by applying forces at two ends,the ratio of the elongation in the thin wire to that in the thick wire is:

$A$ load of $1 \,kg$ weight is attached to one end of a steel wire of area of cross-section $3 \,mm^2$ and Young's modulus $10^{11} \,N/m^2$. The other end is suspended vertically from a hook on a wall, then the load is pulled horizontally and released. When the load passes through its lowest position, the fractional change in length is $(g = 10 \,m/s^2)$.

Let $L$ be the length and $d$ be the diameter of the cross-section of a wire. Wires of the same material with different $L$ and $d$ are subjected to the same tension along the length of the wire. In which of the following cases will the extension of the wire be the maximum?

Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. The first wire has cross-sectional area $A$ and the second wire has cross-sectional area $3A$. If the length of the first wire is increased by $\Delta l$ on applying a force $F$,how much force is needed to stretch the second wire by the same amount?
