Two wires $A$ and $B$ made of the same material and areas of cross-section in the ratio $1: 2$ are stretched by the same force. If the masses of the wires $A$ and $B$ are in the ratio $2: 3$, then the ratio of the elongations of the wires $A$ and $B$ is

The length of a metallic wire is $l$. The tension in the wire is $T_1$ for length $l_1$ and the tension in the wire is $T_2$ for length $l_2$. Find the original length $l$.

The following four wires of length $L$ and radius $r$ are made of the same material. Which of these will have the largest extension,when the same tension is applied?

$A$ steel rod has a radius of $50 \ mm$ and a length of $2 \ m$. It is stretched along its length with a force of $400 \ kN$. This causes an elongation of $0.5 \ mm$. Find the (approximate) Young's modulus of steel from this information.

One end of a horizontal thick copper wire of length $2L$ and radius $2R$ is welded to an end of another horizontal thin copper wire of length $L$ and radius $R$. When the arrangement is stretched by applying forces at two ends,the ratio of the elongation in the thin wire to that in the thick wire is:

$A$ steel ring of radius $r$ and cross-sectional area $A$ is fitted onto a wooden disc of radius $R$ $(R > r)$. If Young's modulus is $Y$,then the force with which the steel ring is expanded is
