Elastic Modulie
Question

Fig. shows a wire of length l and of slightly non-uniform cross-section. Its radius at one end is R1 and at  the other, it is R2
The wire is stretched by forces F and F applied along the length in opposite directions and normal to the ends. Y being the Young's rpodulus, extension caused in the wire is nearly:

Moderate
Solution

Effective area of the wire = π R1R2

so extension in the wire =e=FlY πR1R2
