The Young's modulus of a rubber string $8\, cm$ long and density $1.5\, kg/m^3$ is $5 \times 10^8\, N/m^2$. If it is suspended from the ceiling in a room,the increase in length due to its own weight will be:

Two wires $A$ and $B$ made of different materials of length $6.0 \ cm$ and $5.4 \ cm$, respectively, and area of cross-sections $3.0 \times 10^{-5} \ m^2$ and $4.5 \times 10^{-5} \ m^2$, respectively, are stretched by the same magnitude under a given load. The ratio of the Young's modulus of $A$ to that of $B$ is $x : 3$. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . . . . . .

Two wires of the same length and material are stretched by the same force. If their masses are in the ratio $3:4$,then the ratio of their elongations is

The ratio of the lengths of two wires $A$ and $B$ of the same material is $1 : 2$ and the ratio of their diameters is $2 : 1$. If they are stretched by the same force,what is the ratio of the increase in their lengths?

$A$ 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 $2 \times 10^{11} \, Pa$.)

$A$ thick metal wire of density $\rho$ and length $L$ is hung from a rigid support. The increase in length of the wire due to its own weight is ($Y =$ Young's modulus of the material of the wire).
