Q108 / 180 · NEET 2014 · Physics

Copper of fixed volume V is drawn into wire of length l. When this wire is subjected to a constant force F, the extension produced in the wire is ∆l. Which of the following graph is a straight line?

  • A
    ∆l versus 1/l
  • Correct answer
    B
    ∆l versus l2
  • C
    ∆l versus 1/l2
  • D
    ∆l versus l

Solution

V=Al
Y=F/A∆ll
Y∆ll=FA
∆l=FlYA=FY.llV
∆l=FYVl2
∆l∝l2

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
