Question

two wires of same length and material but of different radii are suspended from rigid support both carry same load will the stress strain and extension in them be same or different​

Answer 1

Answer:

Both carry the same load. Will the stress, strain and extension in them be same or different? be the radii of the two wires. ... Hence stress, strain and extension are all different for the two wires.

Explanation:

Stress (P) =

Area

Load

∴ for the first wire,

stress, P

1

=

πr

1

2

F

And for the second wire,

P

2

=

πr

2

2

F

∴

P

1

P

2

=

r
