$A$ $100\,m$ long wire having cross-sectional area $6.25 \times 10^{-4}\,m^2$ and Young's modulus $10^{10}\,N/m^2$ is subjected to a load of $250\,N$. The elongation in the wire will be:

What force is required to increase the length of a wire of diameter $4 \, mm$ and Young's modulus $9 \times 10^{10} \, N/m^2$ by $0.1\%$?

Let $L$ be the length and $d$ be the diameter of the cross-section of a wire. Wires of the same material with different $L$ and $d$ are subjected to the same tension along the length of the wire. In which of the following cases will the extension of the wire be the maximum?

The length of a metal wire is $L_1$ when the tension is $T_1$ and $L_2$ when the tension is $T_2$. The unstretched length of the wire is:

Two wires $A$ and $B$ of same length, same radius and same Young's modulus are heated to the same range of temperatures. If the coefficient of linear expansion of $A$ is $\frac{3}{2}$ times that of $B$, then the ratio of the thermal stresses produced in the two wires $A$ and $B$ is
