As shown in the figure,in an experiment to determine Young's modulus of a wire,the extension-load curve is plotted. The curve is a straight line passing through the origin and makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the load axis. The length of the wire is $62.8\,cm$ and its diameter is $4\,mm$. The Young's modulus is found to be $x \times 10^4\,N/m^2$. The value of $x$ is

The extension of a wire by the application of load is $3 \ mm$. The extension in a wire of the same material and length but half the radius by the same load is..... $mm$.

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

Two metallic wires $P$ and $Q$ have the same volume and are made up of the same material. If their areas of cross-section are in the ratio $4:1$ and a force $F_1$ is applied to $P$,an extension of $\Delta l$ is produced. The force required to produce the same extension in $Q$ is $F_2$. The value of $\frac{F_1}{F_2}$ is . . . . . . .

$A$ uniform steel rod of mass $1.8 \,kg$ and length $0.8 \,m$ is hung from a nail with the help of two steel wires,each of area of cross-section $0.01 \,mm^2$ and unstretched length $0.5 \,m$,as shown in the figure. The centre of mass of the rod lies vertically below the nail. The increase in the distance between the centre of mass of the rod and the nail due to stretching of the wires as the rod hangs is . . . . . . $mm$.
