PASSAGE
Figure shows the relationship between tensile stress and strain for a typical material. Below
the proportional point A, stress is directly proportional to strain which means Young’s
modulus (Y) is a constant. In this region the material obeys Hooke’s law.
Provided the strain is below the yield point ‘B’ the material returns to its original shape and
size when the force is removed. Beyond the yield point, the material retains a permanent
deformation after the stress is removed. For stresses beyond the yield point, the material
exhibit plastic flow, which means that it continues to elongate for little increases in the stress.
Beyond C a local constriction occurs. The material fractures at D (i.e., breaking point). The
graph below shows the stress-strain curve for 4 different material.

PASSAGE
The fact that the density of ice is smaller than the density of water has an important
consequence for homeowners, who have to contend with the possibility of bursting water
pipes during severe winters. Water often freezes in a section of pipe exposed to unusually
cold temperatures. The ice can form and immovable plug that prevents the subsequent flow
of water, as Figure illustrates. When water (larger density) turns to ice (smaller density), its
volume expands by 10%. When ice forms on the right side of the plug, the expanding ice
pushes liquid to the right. But is has nowhere to go if the faucet is closed. As ice continues to
form and expand, the water pressure between the plug and faucet rises. The bulk modulus of
ice is much more than that of the water. So water gets compressed. Even a small increase in
the amount of ice produces a large increased in the pressure. Therefore, the pipe can burst at
any point where it is structurally weak. There is a simple way to prevent pipes from bursting.
Simply open the faucet, so it drips a little. The excessive pressure will be relieved.

33. (a) We know that Y  FL / A L , where the letters have their usual meanings.
FL
Clearly, L  . When the original length (L) of the cable becomes L / 2, L (change in
AY
length or elongation) also becomes L / 2 since the load (F) is fixed.
Thus, the elongation is half of the former value.
YA L
(b) As F  , there is no change in the value of the maximum load (F) as L / L remains
L
constant even on shortening the cable to half its original length. (Y and A are the same for
any length of the cable.)

(b) Maximum load that can be supported by a cable is given by F   , i.e.,

L 4L
F D .2
Thus, when D becomes twice its former value, F is four times its former value.
35. (a) Young’s modulus = stress/strain = slope of the straight portion of the stress-strain graph.
Since tan A  tan B ; slope of OP  slope of OP ' , Y for material-A>Y for material-B.
(b) A material is ductile if there is a large plastic deformation between the elastic limit (E)
and the fracture point (F). Material-A is more ductile than material-B as EF  E ' F ' . The
region EF , as said earlier, represents the plastic behavior.
(c) A material is brittle if the plastic region between the elastic limit and the fracture point is
small. Material-B is more brittle than material-A as it has smaller plastic region E ' F '  EF  .
(d) Strength of a material is determined by the highest point on the stress-strain curve. The
stress corresponding to this point is called the ultimate strength Su  . Since this point (C) for
material-A is higher than the corresponding point C ' for material-B, Su A  Su B . Hence,
material-A is stronger than material-B.
36. (a) (i) Hooke’s law is not obeyed at all.
(ii) There is no permanent set even for large stresses.
(iii) The material does not retrace the curve while unloading.
In fact, each curve forms a loop, called the elastic hysteresis loop and the area of this loop
represents the energy dissipated by the material while undergoing stretching and then
recovering its original configuration.
(b) To absorb vibrations of the machinery, the material with larger hysteresis loop area is
preferred. The material with smaller loop area would not provide stability to the machinery
installed on it. Obviously, rubber B is the rubber of choice in this case.
(c) In case of a car tyre, energy wasted (which ultimately appears as heat) is to be avoided as
it would heat up tyre. Obviously, rubber A with lesser energy loss is to be preferred.
37. Bulk modulus (B) for water is more than for air (as air can easily be compressed and water is
almost incompressible).
38. Rubber, glass, copper and steel.
39. Infinite.
40. All the elastic moduli decrease with temperature.
41. To manufacture a spring, we prefer speed to copper as steel is more elastic than copper. (Y
for steel  19.2 1010 N / m 2 and Y for copper  12.5 1010 N / m 2 ).
42. (a) False: For a given stress, the strain in rubber is more than that in steel. Since Young’s
modulus of elasticity is inversely proportional to strain, its value is less in case of rubber as
compared to that in case of steel.
(b) True: Stretching of a coil changes its shape which is determined by its shear modulus.
43. (c) The length and shape of the spring change.

46. For each bar the thermal linear strain is  /   T , while the mechanical linear strain is
 /   / E , where  is the internal mechanical normal stress (Young’s modulus),
which is the same for both bars. The sum of the two strains is zero :
 T   / E  0.
Hence, E   /  T . Since the right-hand side is the same for both bars, we can write
1E1  2 E 2 , or 1 /  2  E 2 / E1 .
If the walls possess the same mechanical properties, the deformability of the walls has no
effect on the result.

The integral on the right-hand side gives the area bounded by the curve, the horizontal axis,
and the vertical straight lines at p1 and p 2 . After evaluating this integral, we turn independent,
the volume ratio would be V1 / V2  exp   p2  p1  .
48. Since the coefficient of linear thermal expansion of copper  c is greater than that of steel  s
, the increase in temperature will lead to compression of the copper plate and tension of the
steel ones. In view of symmetry, the relative elongations of all the three plates are the same.
Denoting the compressive force acting on the copper plate from the sides of the steel plates
 F
by F, we shall have for the relative elongation of the copper plate :  c t  .

Either steel plate is subjected to the tensile force F/2 from the side of the copper one. Upon

equating the relative elongation of the plates, we obtain :  c t   s t 
