Question

a steel wire having cross sectional area 1 mm is stretched by 10 N and find lateral strain produced by a wire ​

Answer 1

Answer:The lateral strain will be 10N/(1×10^(-3))

=0.01

Explanation:

Answer 2

Dear Student,

◆ Answer -

Lateral strain = 1.45×10^-5

● Explanation -

Longitudinal strain is calculated by -

Longitudinal strain = F / YA

Longitudinal strain = 10 / (2×10^11 × 10^-6)

Longitudinal strain = 5×10^-5

Lateral strain produced by the wire is -

Lateral strain = δ × longitudinal strain

Lateral strain = 0.29 × 5×10^-5

Lateral strain = 1.45×10^-5

Hence, lateral strain produced in the wire is 1.45×10^-5.

Thanks dear. Hope this helps you...
