उत्तर
The temperature of a wire is doubled. The Young’s modulus of elasticity will decrease.
Explanation:
Young's modulus (Y): It is defined as the ratio of normal stress to longitudinal strain within the limit of proportionality.
`Y = "Normal stress"/"Longitudinal strain"`
= `(F/A)/((ΔL)/L)`
= `(FL)/(AΔL)`
The fractional change in length of any material is defined as `(ΔL)/L_0 = αΔT` where ΔT is the change in the temperature, L0 is the original length, α is the coefficient of linear expansion of the given material and L0 is the original length of material.
So, simply a change in length is due to change in temperature.
`ΔL = L_0αΔT`
And Young's modules
(Y) = `"Stress"/"Strain"`
= `(FL_0)/(A xx ΔL)`
= `(FL_0)/(AL_0 ΔT) ∝ 1/(ΔT)`
As Y ∝ 1/∆T
When temperature increases ∆T increases, hence Y decreases.

In nature, the failure of structural members usually result from large torque because of twisting or bending rather than due to tensile or compressive strains. This process of structural breakdown is called buckling and in cases of tall cylindrical structures like trees, the torque is caused by its own weight bending the structure. Thus the vertical through the centre of gravity does not fall within the base. The elastic torque caused because of this bending about the central axis of the tree is given by `(Ypir^4)/(4R) . Y` is the Young’s modulus, r is the radius of the trunk and R is the radius of curvature of the bent surface along the height of the tree containing the centre of gravity (the neutral surface). Estimate the critical height of a tree for a given radius of the trunk.
A boy's catapult is made of rubber cord which is 42 cm long, with a 6 mm diameter of cross-section and negligible mass. The boy keeps a stone weighing 0.02 kg on it and stretches the cord by 20 cm by applying a constant force. When released, the stone flies off with a velocity of 20 ms-1. Neglect the change in the area of the cross-section of the cord while stretched. Young's modulus of rubber is closest to ______.
