Elastic Modulie
Question

A 2m long thin rod of mass 10 kg and cross sectional area 5 mm2 is lying on a frictionless horizontal surface. A 1000 N force is applied to one end of the rod as shown in figure it young's modulus of the rod is 2×1011N/m2, elongation produced in the rod is 

Moderate
Solution

When the rod is observed from its own frame, pseudo force 

ma = 1000 N will act at the centre of mass C of the rod 

 Elongation δ=P×BCAY=103×15×106×2×1011m=1mm
