$A$ wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is clamped rigidly at one end. When the other end of the wire is pulled by a force $f$,its length increases by $l$. Another wire of the same material of length $2L$ and radius $2r$ is pulled by a force $2f$. Then the increase in its length will be

  • A
    $2l$
  • B
    $l$
  • C
    $4l$
  • D
    $l/2$

$A$ $14.5\; kg$ 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.

Same tension is applied to the following four wires made of same material. The elongation is longest in
