उत्तर
The maximum load a wire can withstand without breaking, when its length is reduced to half of its original length, will remain same.
Explanation:
Because breaking stress = `"Breaking force"/"Area of cross section"`
As breaking force does not depend on length. Thus, changing the cross-section has no effect which implies breaking force remains the same.

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.

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. Show that it is equal to `1/2` Mgl, where l is the extension. The loss in gravitational potential energy of the mass earth system is Mgl. Where does the remaining `1/2` Mgl energy go ?
When the skeleton of an elephant and the skeleton of a mouse are prepared in the same size, the bones of the elephant are shown thicker than those of the mouse. Explain why the bones of an elephant are thicker than proportionate. The bones are expected to withstand the stress due to the weight of the animal.
