A copper wire is 1.6 m long and its diameter is 1.1 mm. If the wire hangs vertically, how much weight (in N) must be added to it

qaws [65]

Answer:

Weight required = 194.51 N

Explanation:

The elongation is given by

$\Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}$

Length , L= 1.6 m

Diameter, d = 1.1 mm

Area

$A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}=\frac{\pi \times (1.1\times 10^{-3})^2}{4}=9.50\times 10^{-7}m^2$

Change in length, ΔL = 2.8 mm = 0.0028 m

Young's modulus of copper, E = 117 GPa = 117 x 10⁹ Pa

Substituting,

$\Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}\\\\0.0028=\frac{P\times 1.6}{9.50\times 10^{-7}\times 117\times 10^9}\\\\P=194.51N$

Weight required = 194.51 N
