A wire is stretched such that its volume remains constant. The poission's ratio of the material of the wire is

Young's modulus of a perfect rigid body is

A metallic rod breaks when strain produced is \(0.2 \%\). The Young's modulus of the material of the \(\operatorname{rod} 7 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2\). The area of crosssection to support a load of \(10^4 \mathrm{~N}\) is

A stretched wire of a material whose young's modulus \(Y=2 \times 10^{11} ~\mathrm{Nm}^{-2}\) has poisson's ratio 0.25 . Its lateral strain \(\varepsilon_l=10^{-3}\). The elastic energy density of the wire is

A thick metal wire of density $\rho$ and length $L$ is hung from a rigid support. The increase in length of the wire due to its own weight is ( $Y=$ Young's modulus of the material of the wire)

Two wires A and B are made of same material. Their diameters are in the ratio of $1: 2$ and lengths are in the ratio of $1: 3$. If they are stretched by the same force, then increase in their lengths will be in the ratio of
