Two exactly similar wires of steel and copper are stretched by equal forces. If the total elongation is 2 cm, then how much is the elongation in steel and copper wire respectively? Given,
1. 1.25 cm; 0.75 cm
2. 0.75 cm; 1.25 cm
3. 1.15 cm; 0.85 cm
4. 0.85 cm; 1.15 cm
The proportional limit of steel is and its Young's Modulus is . The maximum elongation, a one metre long steel wire can be given without exceeding the proportional limit is

2. 4 mm
3. 1 mm
4. 8 mm
In a series combination of copper and steel wires of same length and same diameter, a force is applied at one of their ends while the other end is kept fixed. The combined length is increased by 2 cm. The wires will have
1. Same stress and same strain
2. Different stress and different strain
3. Different stress and same strain
4. Same stress and different strain
If in case A, elongation in wire of length L is l, then for same wire, elongation in case B will be-
