Question:medium
Three thin wires of equal length in suspension have the respective ratio of their area of cross section \(1:2:4\) and Young's moduli \(4:2:1\), then the ratio of their time periods due to attached at the other ends due to elongation is
Three thin wires of equal length in suspension have the respective ratio of their area of cross section \(1:2:4\) and Young's moduli \(4:2:1\), then the ratio of their time periods due to attached at the other ends due to elongation is
Show Hint
For wire oscillation, compare the product \(AY\). If \(AY\) is the same, the time period is the same.

- One end of a steel wire is fixed to the ceiling of an elevator moving up with an acceleration \( 2 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) and a load of 10 kg hangs from the other end. If the cross-section of the wire is \( 2 \, \text{cm}^2 \), then the longitudinal strain in the wire will be (Take \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) and \( Y = 2.0 \times 10^{11} \, \text{N/m}^2 \)).
