A wire of diameter 0.20 mm stretches by 0.20% when a 6.28-N force is applied to it. What is Young's modulus for this wire?
2.5 × 1012 Pa
1.0 × 1011 Pa
1.0 ×1012 Pa
2.5 × 1010 Pa
To find Young's modulus for the wire, we can use the formula:
Young's modulus (E) = (stress / strain)
First, let's calculate the stress:
Stress = Force / Area
The area of the wire can be calculated using the formula for the area of a circle:
Area = π * (radius)^2
Given that the diameter of the wire is 0.20 mm, we can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2:
radius = diameter / 2 = 0.20 mm / 2 = 0.10 mm = 0.00010 m
Now, we can calculate the area:
Area = π * (0.00010 m)^2 = 3.14 * (0.00001 m^2) = 3.14 * 10^-8 m^2
Next, let's calculate the strain:
Strain = (change in length) / (original length)
Given that the wire stretches by 0.20% (which is equivalent to 0.0020) and the force applied is 6.28 N, we can use Hooke's Law to find the change in length. Hooke's Law states that the change in length is directly proportional to the force applied:
Change in length = (force * original length) / (Young's modulus * area)
Solving for the change in length:
Change in length = (6.28 N * original length) / (Young's modulus * 3.14 * 10^-8 m^2)
Since we're given that the wire stretches by 0.20%, we can write:
0.0020 = (6.28 N * original length) / (Young's modulus * 3.14 * 10^-8 m^2)
Now, we can rearrange this equation to solve for Young's modulus:
Young's modulus = (6.28 N * original length) / (0.0020 * 3.14 * 10^-8 m^2)
Given the options, we can plug in the values to see which one is the closest to the calculated value. After plugging in the values, we find that the closest option is:
Young's modulus ≈ 1.0 × 10^12 Pa
Therefore, the answer is:
Young's modulus = 1.0 × 10^12 Pa
To find Young's modulus for the wire, we can use the formula:
Young's modulus (E) = (stress) / (strain)
First, let's calculate the stress.
Stress (σ) is given by the formula:
stress = force / area
We can calculate the area of the wire using its diameter. The formula for the area of a wire is:
area = π * (diameter/2)^2
Given that the diameter of the wire is 0.20 mm, the radius (r) can be calculated as:
radius (r) = diameter / 2 = 0.20 mm / 2 = 0.10 mm = 0.10 × 10^-3 m
Plugging in the values, we can calculate the area:
area = π * (0.10 × 10^-3 m)^2
Next, let's calculate the strain.
Strain (ε) is given by the formula:
strain = change in length / original length
In this case, the strain percentage is given as 0.20%, which can be converted to decimal form by dividing by 100:
strain = 0.20 / 100 = 0.002
Now, we have the stress (force / area) and the strain (0.002). Let's substitute these values into the formula for Young's modulus:
Young's modulus (E) = (stress) / (strain)
Young's modulus (E) = (6.28 N / area) / (0.002)
Young's modulus (E) = 6.28 N / (area * 0.002)
Plugging in the value for the area calculated earlier, we can solve for Young's modulus:
Young's modulus (E) = 6.28 N / (π * (0.10 × 10^-3 m)^2 * 0.002)
Calculating this, we find that Young's modulus for the wire is approximately 1.0 × 10^11 Pa.
Therefore, the correct answer is 1.0 × 10^11 Pa.
