  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Two wires are made of the same material and have the same volume. However wire 1 has cross-sectional area AA and wire 2 has cross- sectional area 3A3A. If the length of wire 1 increases by Δx\Delta \mathrm{x} on applying force F\mathrm{F}, how much force is needed to stretch wire 2 by the same amount  ?
    Solution
    1=32\ell_{1}=3\ell_{2} (given)
    Y=FA×1Δx\displaystyle \mathrm{Y}=\frac{\mathrm{F}}{\mathrm{A}}\times\frac{\ell_{1}}{\Delta \mathrm{x}} (i)             [symbols have their usual meaning]
    Y=F13A×1/3Δx\displaystyle \mathrm{Y}=\frac{\mathrm{F}^{1}}{3\mathrm{A}}\times\frac{\ell_{1}/3}{\Delta \mathrm{x}} (ii)
    FA×1Δx=F3A×13Δx\displaystyle \frac{\mathrm{F}}{\mathrm{A}}\times\frac{\ell_{1}}{\Delta \mathrm{x}}=\frac{\mathrm{F}'}{3\mathrm{A}}\times\frac{\ell_{1}}{3\Delta \mathrm{x}}

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    A solid sphere of radius r made of a soft material of bulk modulus K is surrounded by a liquid in a cylindrical container. A massless piston of area a floats on the surface of the liquid, covering entire cross section of cylindrical container. When a mass m is placed on the surface of the piston to compress the liquid, the fractional decrement in the radius of the sphere, (drr)\left(\displaystyle\frac{dr}{r}\right), is?
    Solution
    Volume of sphere  V=4π3r3V = \dfrac{4\pi}{3}r^3
    Decrease in volume of sphere  dV=4π33r2dr-dV = \dfrac{4\pi}{3} 3r^2 dr
    Bulk modulus   K=PVdVK = \dfrac{P V}{-d V}
         \implies \    dV=PVK-dV = \dfrac{PV}{K}    ........(1)
    Pressure   P=ForceArea=mgaP = \dfrac{Force}{Area} = \dfrac{mg}{a}          ......(2)
    Using  (2) in (1), we get    
    4π33r2dr=mga.4π3r3.1K\dfrac{4\pi }{3}3r^2 dr = \dfrac{mg}{a}.\dfrac{4\pi}{3}r^3.\dfrac{1}{K}
         drr=mg3Ka\implies \ \dfrac{dr}{r} = \dfrac{mg}{3Ka}
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    A uniformly tapering conical wire is made from a material of Young's modulus YY and has a normal, unextended length LL. The radii, at the upper and lower ends of this conical wire, have values RR and 3R3R, respectively. The upper end of the wire is fixed to a rigid support and a mass MM is suspended from its lower end. The equilibrium extended length, of this wire, would equal to:
    Solution
    Take a cross section at distance xx from the bottom, hence at this point,

    r=3RxL2Rr=3R-\dfrac { x }{ L } 2R.

    Mgπr2=Ydydx=Mgπ(3R2RxL)2 \dfrac { Mg }{ \pi { r }^{ 2 } } =Y\dfrac { dy }{ dx } =\dfrac { Mg }{ \pi { (3R-\dfrac { 2Rx }{ L } ) }^{ 2 } }  where dydy is elongation of the portion dxdx.

    Integrating this equation for xx in 0 to L, we get,

    y=L(1+13MgπYR2)y=L(1+\dfrac { 1 }{ 3 } \dfrac { Mg }{ \pi Y{ R }^{ 2 } } )
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    The Bulk moduli of Ethanol, Mercury and water are given as 0.9,250.9, 25 and 2.22.2 respectively in units of 109/Nm210^9/ Nm^{-2}. For a given value of pressure, the fractional compression in volume is ΔVV\displaystyle \frac{\Delta V}{V}. Which of the following statements about ΔVV\displaystyle \frac{\Delta V}{V} for these three liquids is correct?
    Solution
    The bulk modulus of elasticity for a fluid is given by K= ΔPΔV/VK=\displaystyle  \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta V/V}
    Thus higher is the value of KK, lower is the value of ΔVV\dfrac{\Delta V}{V}
    Hence, the order will depend on their bulk modulus of elasticity.
    Hence, it follows the order,
    Mercury<Water<EthanolMercury < Water < Ethanol
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    If speed(V), acceleration(A) and force(F) are considered as fundamental units, the dimension of Young's modulus will be?
    Solution
    FA=yΔll\dfrac{F}{A}=y\cdot \dfrac{\Delta l}{l}
    [Y]=FA[Y]=\dfrac{F}{A}
    Now from dimension
    F=MLT2F=\dfrac{ML}{T^2}
    L=FMT2L=\dfrac{F}{M}\cdot T^2
    L2=F2M2(VA)4L^2=\dfrac{F^2}{M^2}\left(\dfrac{V}{A}\right)^4
    T=VA\because T=\dfrac{V}{A}
    L2=F2M2A2v4A2L^2=\dfrac{F^2}{M^2A^2}\dfrac{v^4}{A^2} F=MAF=MA
    L2=V4A2L^2=\dfrac{V^4}{A^2}
    [Y]=[F][A]=F1V4A2[Y]=\dfrac{[F]}{[A]}=F^1V^{-4}A^2.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    A thin 1 m long rod has a radius of 5 mm.1 A force of 50 πkN\pi kN is applied at one end to determine its Young's modulus. Assume that the force is exactly known. If the least count in the measurement of all lengths is 0.01 mm, which of the following statements is false ? 
    Solution
    Y=Flπr2ΔlY=\dfrac{Fl}{\pi r^2\Delta l}

      =50×π×103×1π×(0.005)2×0.01×103= \dfrac{50\times \pi \times 10^3\times 1}{\pi \times (0.005)^2\times 0.01\times 10^{-3}}

      =2×1014N/m2=2\times 10^{14}N/m^2
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    A bottle has an opening of radius aa and length bb. A cork of length bb and radius (a+Δa)(a+ \Delta a) where (Δa<<a)(\Delta a << a) is compressed to fit into the opening completely (See figure). If the bulk modulus of cork is B and the frictional coefficient between the bottle and cork is μ\mu then the force needed to push the cork into the bottle is :

    Solution
    P=NA=N(2πa)bP=\dfrac{N}{A}=\dfrac{N}{(2\pi a)b}

    \Rightarrow Stress = BB ×\times strain

    N(2πa)b=B2πaΔa×bπa2b\dfrac{N}{(2\pi a)b}=B\dfrac{2\pi a\Delta a\times b}{\pi a^2b}

    f=μN=μ4πbΔaBf=\mu N=\mu 4\pi b\,\Delta aB
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    A wire fixed at the upper end stretches by length ll by applying a force FF. The work done in stretching is: 
    Solution
    Let the area be AA and length LL of the string then the work done by the force is :
    W=12×stress×strain×volume=12×FA×lL×A×L=Fl2W = \dfrac{1}{2} \times stress \times strain \times volume = \dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{F}{A} \times \dfrac{l}{L} \times A \times L = \dfrac{Fl}{2}
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    A wire suspended vertically from one of its ends stretched by attaching a weight of 200N200 N to the lower end. The weight stretches the wire by 1mm1 mm. Then the elastic energy stored in the wire is:
    Solution
    Given :    F=200NF = 200 N           ΔL =1mm =0.001\Delta L  = 1mm  = 0.001 m
    Elastic energy      E =12×Stress×Strain×VolumeE  = \dfrac{1}{2}\times Stress \times Strain \times Volume

    \therefore    E =12×FA×ΔLL×AL =FΔL2E   =\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{F}{A} \times \dfrac{\Delta L}{L} \times AL  = \dfrac{F\Delta L}{2}

    OR     E =200× 0.0012 =0.1E  = \dfrac{200 \times  0.001}{2}  = 0.1 J
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    A wire elongates by 1mm1 mm when a load W is hanged from it. lf the wire goes over a pulley and two weights W\mathrm{W} each are hung at the two ends, the elongation of the wire will be (in mm):
    Solution
    Initially the length of wire is LL
    \therefore   Y=WLAδLY = \dfrac{W L}{A \delta L}     where  δL=1 mm\delta L = 1  mm

        \implies     WLAY =1mm\dfrac{WL}{AY}  =1 mm                          ..................(1)
      
    Now the wire goes over the pulley. 
    Thus the length of wire on each side of the pulley     L=L2L' = \dfrac{L}{2}
    Let the extensions in the wires on the two sides of the pulley be  δL1\delta L_1 and  δL2\delta L_2 respectively.

    For one side       Y=WL/2AδL1Y = \dfrac{W L/2}{A \delta L_1}    
        \implies    δL1=WL2AY =0.5mm \delta L_1=\dfrac{WL}{2AY}  =0.5 mm               (using 1)       
    For another side    Y=WL/2AδL2Y = \dfrac{W L/2}{A \delta L_2}    
        \implies    δL2=WL2AY =0.5mm \delta L_2=\dfrac{WL}{2AY}  =0.5 mm               (using 1)     
      Thus total elongation      δLT=0.5+0.5 =1 mm\delta L_T = 0.5 + 0.5  =1  mm
