$A$ cylindrical rod made of aluminum has a length of $1 \,m$ and a diameter of $10 \,cm$. The rod is subjected to a tensile force of $100 \,kN$. Calculate the elongation in the rod. (Young's modulus of aluminum $= 70 \,GPa$)

In an experiment to determine the Young's modulus,steel wires of five different lengths $(1, 2, 3, 4$ and $5\,m)$ but of same cross-section $(2\,mm^2)$ were taken and curves between extension and load were obtained. The slope $(\text{extension/load})$ of the curves were plotted with the wire length and the following graph is obtained. If the Young's modulus of given steel wires is $x \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2$,then the value of $x$ is

One end of a uniform wire of length $L$ and of weight $W$ is attached rigidly to a point in the roof and a weight $W_1$ is suspended from its lower end. If $A$ is the area of cross-section of the wire,the stress in the wire at a height $3L/4$ from its lower end is

$A$ force of $200\, N$ is applied at one end of a wire of length $2\, m$ and having area of cross-section $10^{-2}\, cm^2$. The other end of the wire is rigidly fixed. If the coefficient of linear expansion of the wire is $\alpha = 8 \times 10^{-6}\, ^\circ C^{-1}$,Young's modulus is $Y = 2.2 \times 10^{11}\, N/m^2$,and its temperature is increased by $5\, ^\circ C$,then the increase in the tension of the wire will be ........ $N$.
