A thick rope of rubber of density 1.5 kg//m^(3) and Y = 5 xx 10^(6) Nm^(-2) 8 metres in length when hung vertically will increase in length by : (g = 10 ms^(-2))

Answer»

`9.6 xx 10^(-5)` m
9.6 m
`19.2xx10^(-3)m`
`19.2xx10^(-5)m`

Solution :As the WEIGHT of wire is at centre of gravity.
`therefore` Only HALF the length ofrope gets extended.
`Y=F/A.((L//2))/(Deltal)`
`thereforeDeltal=(Mg)/(AY).L/2=(ALpg.h)/(2Ay)=(L^(2)pg)/(2Y)`
`=(64xx1.5xx10)/(2xx5xx10^(6))=9.6xx10^(-5)m`
So, the CORRECT choice is (a).
