The amount of elastic potential energy per unit volume (in SI unit) of a steel wire of length to stretch it by is (if Young's modulus of the wire ) :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: D
$$ \begin{aligned} & \frac{\text { E.P.E }}{\text { Volume }}=\frac{1}{2}(\text { stress)(strain) } \\ & =\frac{1}{2}(Y)(\text { strain })^2 \\ & =\frac{1}{2}(\mathrm{Y})\left(\frac{\Delta \mathrm{L}}{\mathrm{L}}\right)^2 \\ & =\frac{1}{2}\left(2 \times 10^{11}\right)\left(\frac{1 \times 10^{-3}}{100 \times 10^{-2}}\right)^2 \\ & =10^5 \end{aligned} $$
