The area of a cross-section of a steel wire is $0.1 \, cm^2$ and Young's modulus of steel is $2 \times 10^{11} \, N \, m^{-2}$. The force required to stretch it by $0.1 \%$ of its original length is ......... $N$.

In steel,the Young's modulus and the strain at the breaking point are $2 \times 10^{11} \, N/m^2$ and $0.15$ respectively. The stress at the breaking point for steel is therefore:

Why are springs made of steel instead of copper?

$A$ uniform metallic wire is elongated by $0.04\, m$ when subjected to a linear force $F$. The elongation,if its length and diameter are doubled and subjected to the same force,will be ..... $cm$.

$A$ fixed volume of iron is drawn into a wire of length $l$. The extension produced in this wire by a constant force $F$ is proportional to

$A$ horizontal steel railroad track has a length of $100 \, m$ when the temperature is $25^{\circ} C$. The track is constrained from expanding or bending. The stress on the track on a hot summer day,when the temperature is $40^{\circ} C$,is ............. $\times 10^7 \, Pa$. (Note: The linear coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is $1.1 \times 10^{-5} /^{\circ} C$ and the Young's modulus of steel is $2 \times 10^{11} \, Pa$.)
