Question 1.

If longitudinal strain fora wire is 0.03 and its Poisson’s ratio is 0.5, then its lateral strain is

(a) 0.003

(b) 0.0075

(c) 0.015

  1. Which of the material has greater youngs modulus?
  2. Which of the two material is preferable to be used as a rope in a crane?
  3. Redraw the graph and mark the regions in the graphs where the elastic force is strictly conservative
