$A$ steel rod of diameter $1\,cm$ is clamped firmly at each end when its temperature is $25\,^{\circ}C$ so that it cannot contract on cooling. The tension in the rod at $0\,^{\circ}C$ is approximately ......... $N$ $(\alpha = 10^{-5}/\,^{\circ}C, Y = 2 \times 10^{11}\,N/m^2)$

$A$ thin rod having a length of $1\;m$ and area of cross-section $3 \times 10^{-6}\;m^2$ is suspended vertically from one end. The rod is cooled from $210^{\circ}C$ to $160^{\circ}C$. After cooling,a mass $M$ is attached at the lower end of the rod such that the length of the rod again becomes $1\;m$. 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 $g=10\;ms^{-2}$)

The mean distance between the atoms of iron is $3 \times 10^{-10} \ m$ and the interatomic force constant for iron is $7 \ N/m$. The Young's modulus of elasticity for iron is:

Four wires of the same material are stretched by the same load. Which one of them will elongate the most if their dimensions are as follows?

$A$ rigid bar of mass $15 \, kg$ is supported symmetrically by three wires,each $2 \, m$ long. The wires at each end are made of copper,and the middle one is made of steel. The Young's modulus of elasticity for copper and steel are $110 \times 10^9 \, N/m^2$ and $190 \times 10^9 \, N/m^2$ respectively. If each wire is to have the same tension,the ratio of their diameters (diameter of copper wire to diameter of steel wire) will be ............

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:
