Elastic Modulie
Question

The Young's modulus of a rope of 10m length and having diameter of 2 cm is 20 x 1011  dyne cm-2. If the elongation produced in the rope is 1 cm, the force applied on the rope is

Easy
Solution

Young's modulus of a rope,  Y=FLAΔl

Given,  L=10m,A=πr2=π(1)2=π

Y=20×1011 dyne cm2,Δl=1cm

 F=YAΔlLF=20×1011×π×110×102

F=6.28×109 dyne 

 or  F=6.28×104N
