Q67 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (27 Jul Shift 2) · Physics
A steel wire of length and a copper wire of length , both of radius are connected end to end. When stretched by a load, the net elongation is found to be . The load applied, in Newton, will be: (Given )
- A
- B
- C
- Correct answerD
Solution
When two wires are connected end to end, the tension in them will be same.
Change in length using Hooke's law can be found as,
Total change in length can be written as,
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
