$A$ $14.5\; kg$ mass,fastened to the end of a steel wire of unstretched length $1.0\; m$,is whirled in a vertical circle with an angular velocity of $2\; rev/s$ at the bottom of the circle. The cross-sectional area of the wire is $0.065\; cm^2$. Calculate the elongation of the wire when the mass is at the lowest point of its path.

  • A
    $7.341 \times 10^{-5}\; m$
  • B
    $3.985 \times 10^{-3}\; m$
  • C
    $5.697 \times 10^{-5}\; m$
  • D
    $1.539 \times 10^{-4}\; m$

Young's modulus and coefficient of linear expansion of the rod are $2 \times 10^{11}\;Nm^{-2}$ and $2 \times 10^{-5}\;K^{-1}$,respectively. The value of $M$ is $.......kg$. (Take $g=10\;ms^{-2}$)

Two rods of same material and volume having circular cross-section are subjected to tension $T$. Within the elastic limit,the same force is applied to both the rods. If the diameter of the first rod is half of the second rod,then the ratio of the extension of the first rod to the second rod will be: (in $: 1$)

The length of an elastic string is $x \, m$ when the tension is $8 \, N$ and $y \, m$ when the tension is $10 \, N$. The length in meters when the tension is $18 \, N$ is:
