The ratio of lengths of two rods A and B of the same material is 1: 2 and the ratio of their radii is 2: 1. The ratio of modulus of rigidity of A and B will be:
1. | 4: 1 | 2. | 16: 1 |
3. | 8: 1 | 4. | 1: 1 |
When a spiral spring is stretched by suspending a load on it, the strain produced is called:
1. | Shearing |
2. | Longitudinal |
3. | Volume |
4. | shearing and longitudinal |
The Young's modulus of the material of a wire is and there is no transverse strain in it, then its modulus of rigidity will be

(4) Can not be predicted
A cube of aluminium of sides 0.1 m is subjected to a shearing force of 100 N. The top face of the cube is displaced through 0.02 cm with respect to the bottom face. The shearing strain would be:
1. 0.02
2. 0.1
3. 0.005
4. 0.002
The upper end of a wire of radius 4 mm and length 100 cm is clamped and its other end is twisted through an angle of 30°. Then angle of shear is

(2) Breadth
(3) Shape
(4) Volume
To break a wire, a force of is required. If the density of the material is , then the length of the wire which will break by its own weight will be -
(a) 34 m (b) 30 m
(c) 300 m (d) 3 m
The strain-stress curves of three wires of different materials are shown in the figure. P, Q and R are the elastic limits of the wires. The figure shows that:
1. | Elasticity of wire P is maximum |
2. | Elasticity of wire Q is maximum |
3. | Tensile strength of R is maximum |
4. | None of the above is true |
