Question

When a deforming force is applied to a wire, which type of deformation primarily occurs?

Options

• Change in volume

• Change in length

• Change in mass

• Change in density

Answer 1

Change in length

Explanation:

A wire under a deforming force (like stretching or compression) primarily undergoes a change in length. This is one of the three types of deformation: change in length, volume, or shape.
