When a certain weight is suspended from a long uniform wire,its length increases by $1 \ cm$. If the same weight is suspended from another wire of the same material and length but having a diameter half of the first one,then the increase in length will be ........ $cm$.

Two wires of the same material have lengths in the ratio $1:2$ and diameters in the ratio $2:1$. If they are stretched by forces $F_A$ and $F_B$ respectively to produce the same extension,then the ratio $\frac{F_A}{F_B}$ is:

Two wires of diameter $0.25 \; cm,$ one made of steel and the other made of brass,are loaded as shown in the figure. The unloaded length of the steel wire is $1.5 \; m$ and that of the brass wire is $1.0 \; m.$ Compute the elongations of the steel and the brass wires. (Given: Young's modulus of steel $Y_s = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \; Pa,$ Young's modulus of brass $Y_b = 0.91 \times 10^{11} \; Pa$)

For four wires made of the same material,if the same force is applied,in which wire will the increase in length be maximum?
