Due to the addition of impurities,the modulus of elasticity

$A$ metal wire of length $0.5\; m$ and cross-sectional area $10^{-4}\; m^{2}$ has a breaking stress of $5 \times 10^{8}\; N/m^{2}$. $A$ block of mass $10\; kg$ is attached to one end of the wire and is rotated in a horizontal circle. The maximum linear velocity of the block will be $v\; m/s$. Find $v$.

Read the following two statements below carefully and state,with reasons,if it is true or false.
$(a)$ The Young's modulus of rubber is greater than that of steel;
$(b)$ The stretching of a coil is determined by its shear modulus.

In the given figure,two elastic rods $A$ and $B$ are rigidly joined to end supports. $A$ small mass $m$ is moving with velocity $v$ between the rods. All collisions are assumed to be elastic and the surface is frictionless. The time period of the small mass $m$ will be: [Here,an elastic rod may be treated as a spring of spring constant $k = \frac{YA}{L}$]

What is buckling? What should be the shape of a rod for preventing buckling?

Two blocks of masses $1 \, kg$ and $2 \, kg$ are connected by a metal wire going over a smooth pulley as shown in the figure. The breaking stress of the metal is $2 \times 10^9 \, N/m^2$. What should be the minimum radius of the wire used if it is not to break? Take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$.
