Masses M1 and M2 are supported by wires that have equal lengths when unstretched. The wire supporting M1 is an aluminum wire 1.35 mm in diameter, and the one supporting M2 is a steel wire 0.4 mm in diameter. What is the ratio M1/M2 if the two wires stretch by the same amount? Young’s modulus for aluminum is 7 × 10^10 N/m^2and for steel 2 × 10^11 N/m^2. *
Assume a human leg contains a 50cm long bone with an average cross section of 3cm2. By how much (in micrometres) does the bone shorten when the entire body weight of the person is supported by that one leg. The body weight is 700N and the Young's modulus for bone is 1.8 x 100 Pa
A 50-kg bucket of concrete is suspended from a steel wire that is 1.0 mm in diameter 1.0 mm and 11.2 m long. What distance will the wire stretch? Young's modulus for steel is 2.0 x 1011 Pa.
