A wire is suspended from the ceiling and stretched under the action of a weight F suspended from its other end. The force exerted by the ceiling on it is equal and opposite to the weight.
- Tensile stress at any cross section A of the wire is F/A.
- Tensile stress at any cross section is zero.
- Tensile stress at any cross section A of the wire is 2F/A.
- Tension at any cross section A of the wire is F.

उत्तर
a and d
Explanation:
According to the diagram, a wire is stretched under the j action of a weight F suspended from its other end.
Clearly, the force at each cross-section is F.
Now applying the formula,
Tensile stress = Force applied/Area of cross-section = F/A
Tension = Applied force = F

A rod of length 1.05 m having negligible mass is supported at its ends by two wires of steel (wire A) and aluminium (wire B) of equal lengths as shown in Figure. The cross-sectional areas of wires A and B are 1.0 mm2 and 2.0 mm2, respectively. At what point along the rod should a mass m be suspended in order to produce (a) equal stresses and (b) equal strains in both steel and aluminium wires.
When a block a mass M is suspended by a long wire of length L, the elastic potential potential energy stored in the wire is `1/2` × stress × strain × volume.
