Find the Young's modulus of the wire whose stress-strain curve is as shown in the following figure

- A \(8 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}\)
- B \(24 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}\)
- C \(10 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}\)
- D \(2 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(2 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
We know that, stress \(=Y \times\) strain (Under proportional limit) Now Young's modulus, \(Y=\frac{\text { Stress }}{\text { Strain }}=\frac{(8-0) \times 10^7}{(4-0) \times 10^{-4}}\) \(=2 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2}\)

- Two balls of charge \(q_1\) and \(q_2\) initially have a velocity of the same magnitude and direction. After a uniform electric field has been applied during a certain time, the direction of the velocity of the first ball changes by \(60^{\circ}\), and the velocity magnitude is reduced by half. The direction of the velocity of the second ball changes thereby by \(90^{\circ}\).
In what proportion will the velocity of the second ball change? Determine the magnitude of the charge-to-mass ratio for the second ball if it is equal to \(k_1\) for the first ball. The electrostatic interaction between the balls should be neglected.AP EAMCET 2018 Hard - A thin circular ring and a circular disc of equal mass are rolling without sliding.
