3.A force of 200 N is applied at one end of a wire of length 2 m and having area of cross-section \[10^{-2}cm ^{2}\]. The other end of the wire is rigidly fixed. If coefficient of linear expansion of the wire \[\alpha=8\times10^{-6}\diagup^{\circ}C\] and Young's modulus
\[Y=2.2\times10^{11} N\diagup m^{2}\] and its temperature is increased by 5°C, then the increase in the tension
of the wire will be
a) 4.2 N
b) 4.4 N
c) 2.4 N
d) 8.8 N
Explanation:
4. When compared with solids and liquids, the gases have
a) Minimum volume elasticity
b) Maximum volume elasticity
c) Maximum Young's modulus
d) Maximum modulus of rigidity
Explanation: A small change in pressure produces a large change in volume.
5. The length of a wire is 1.0 m and the area of cross-section is \[1.0\times10^{-2} c m^{2}\] . If the work done for increase in length by 0.2 cm is 0.4 joule, then
Young's modulus of the material of the wire is
a) \[2.0\times10^{10} N\diagup m^{2}\]
b) \[4\times10^{10} N\diagup m^{2}\]
c) \[2.0\times10^{11} N\diagup m^{2}\]
d) \[2\times10^{10} N\diagup m^{2}\]
Explanation:
6. The quality of the material which opposes the change in shape, volume or length is called
a) Intermolecular repulsion
b) Intermolecular behaviour
c) Viscosity
d) Elasticity
Explanation: Elasticity
7. For silver, Young's modulus is \[7.25\times10^{10} N\diagup m^{2}\] and Bulk modulus is \[11\times10^{10} N\diagup m^{2}\] . Its Poisson's
ratio will be
a) – 1
b) 0.5
c) 0.39
d) 0.25
Explanation:
8. The longitudinal strain is only possible in
a) Gases
b) Fluids
c) Solids
d) Liquids
Explanation: Solids
9.If the density of the material increases, the value of Young's modulus
a) Increases
b) Decreases
c) First increases then decreases
d) First decreases then increases
Explanation: If density of the material increases then more force (stress) is required for same deformation i.e. the value of young's modulus increases.
10. Young's modulus of rubber is \[10^{4} N\diagup m^{2}\] and area of cross-section is \[2cm^{2}\] . If force of \[2\times10^{5} dynes\] is
applied along its length, then its initial length l becomes
a) 3L
b) 4L
c) 2L
d) None of the above
