The force constant of a spring $(K)$ is synonymous to:

$A$ uniform cylindrical rod of length $L$ and radius $r$ is made from a material whose Young's modulus of elasticity equals $Y$. When this rod is heated by temperature $T$ and simultaneously subjected to a net longitudinal compressional force $F$,its length remains unchanged. The coefficient of volume expansion of the material of the rod is (nearly) equal to:

The speed of a transverse wave passing through a string of length $50 \; cm$ and mass $10 \; g$ is $60 \; ms^{-1}$. The area of cross-section of the wire is $2.0 \; mm^2$ and its Young's modulus is $1.2 \times 10^{11} \; Nm^{-2}$. The extension of the wire over its natural length due to its tension will be $x \times 10^{-5} \; m$. The value of $x$ is $...$

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

$A$ copper wire of length $2.2 \; m$ and a steel wire of length $1.6 \; m$,both of diameter $3.0 \; mm$,are connected end to end. When stretched by a load,the net elongation is found to be $0.70 \; mm$. Obtain the load applied in $N$.

The length of an iron wire is $L$ and the area of cross-section is $A$. The increase in length is $l$ upon applying a force $F$ on its two ends. Which of the following statements is correct?
