In CGS system, the Young's modulus of a steel wire is 2×1012 dyne/cm2. To double the length of a wire of unit cross-sectional area, the force required is
4×106 dynes
2×1012dynes
2×1012newtons
2×108dynes
To double the length of wire l=L,
Stress = Young's modulus ∴ FA=2×1012dynecm2.If A = 1 then F = 2 × 1012 dyne
