The load versus elongation graph for four wires of the same materials shown in the figure. The thinnest wire is represented by the line
- A \(O C\)
- B \(O D\)
- C \(\mathrm{OA}\)
- D \(O B\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{OA}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
It is clear from the graph that, for same value of load \((F)\), elongations \(\mathrm{q}, l_{2}, l_{3}, l_{4}\) are such that
\(l_{4}>l_{3}>l_{2}>l_{1}\)
So, OA represents the thinnest wire.
