(N/A) The equation for the bending of a beam (or rod) is given by the relation: $M = \frac{Y I_g}{R}$,where $M$ is the bending moment,$Y$ is Young's modulus of the material,$I_g$ is the geometrical moment of inertia of the cross-section about the neutral axis,and $R$ is the radius of curvature of the neutral axis.
The bending moment $M$ is defined as the product of force and distance,so its $SI$ unit is $N \cdot m$ (Newton-meter).
The dimensional formula for the bending moment is $[M^1 L^2 T^{-2}]$.

$A$ load of mass $M \ kg$ is suspended from a steel wire of length $2 \ m$ and radius $1.0 \ mm$ in Searle's apparatus experiment. The increase in length produced in the wire is $4.0 \ mm$. Now,the load is fully immersed in a liquid of relative density $2$. The relative density of the material of the load is $8$. The new value of increase in length of the steel wire is ........ $mm$.

If the density of the material increases,the value of Young's modulus

$A$ wire of cross-sectional area $A$,modulus of elasticity $2 \times 10^{11} \text{ N m}^{-2}$,and length $2L = 2 \text{ m}$ is stretched between two vertical rigid supports. When a mass of $2 \text{ kg}$ is suspended at the middle,it sags from its original position,making an angle $\theta = \frac{1}{100} \text{ radian}$ with the horizontal at the points of support. The value of $A$ is . . . . . . $\times 10^{-4} \text{ m}^2$. (Given: $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)

The Young's modulus of a wire of length $L$ and radius $r$ is $Y \, N/m^2$. What will be the Young's modulus of a wire made of the same material with length $L/2$ and radius $r/2$?
