A brass wire of length 2 m and radius 1 mm at \(27^{\circ} C\) is held taut between two rigid supports. Initially it was cooled to a temperature of \(-43^{\circ} C\) creating a tension T in the wire. The temperature to which the wire has to be cooled in order to increase the tension in it to 1.4 T , is _________ \({ }^{\circ} C\)
- A \(-86\)
- B \(-71\)
- C \(-65\)
- D \(-80\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(-71\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( T=\alpha YA(27-(-43).....(i) \) \( 1.4~T=\alpha YA(27-\theta) \) ....(ii) using (ii)/(i) \( 1.4=\frac{27-\theta}{70} \) \( 27-\theta=98 \) \(\therefore \theta=-71^{\circ} C\)

- Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Consider a ferromagnetic material :
Assertion (A) : The individual atoms in a ferromagnetic material possess a magnetic dipole moment and interact with one another in such a way that they spontaneously align themselves forming domains.
Reason (R) : At high enough temperature, the domain structure of ferromagnetic material disintegrates. Thus, magnetization will disappear at high enough temperature known as Curie temperature.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :JEE Mains 2026 Hard
