Elastic Limit :: Discussion


2.The following wires are made of the same material. Which of these will have the largest extension, when the same tension is applied?
A.Length = 50cm, diameter = 0.5mm
B.Length = 100cm, diameter = 1mm
C.Length = 200cm, diameter = 2mm
D.Length = 300cm, diameter = 3mm
Answer:  Option  A
Explanation:

∆l=F/A l/Y=4F/(πD2) l/Y
In Length = 50cm, diameter = 0.5mm, l/D2 = 50/0.052 = 2×104 cm-1
In Length = 100cm, diameter = 1mm, l/D2 = 100/0.12 = 104 cm-1
In Length = 200cm, diameter = 2mm, l/D2 = 200/0.22 = 5×103 cm-1
In Length = 300cm, diameter = 3mm, l/D2 = 300/0.32 = 3.3×103 cm-1
Hence ∆l is maximum in Length = 50cm, diameter = 0.5mm.
