calculate the stress applied to the wire having mass per unit length 0.1g per cm and density is 7 g per cm^3 when 10 g weight attach to the free end
hello!!
since we know that,
stress=f/a,
here f=mg,and
also we know that,d=m/v ; v=m/d
if we divide v=m/d with 'l'on both sides we get, v/l=m/dl;
since,v=l^3
we have ,
l^2=m/d*l;
we get area by m/d*l;
now apply this on stress=f/a.
thank you,hope this helps you!!
