Physics Question from JEE Main 2023 · 1 February, Shift 2

The Young's modulus of a steel wire of length 6m6 \, \text{m} and cross-sectional area 3mm23 \, \text{mm}^2, is 2×1011N/m22 \times 10^{11} \, \text{N/m}^2. The wire is suspended from its support on a given planet. A block of mass 4kg4 \, \text{kg} is attached to the free end of the wire. The acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 14\frac{1}{4} of its value on the earth. The elongation of wire is (Take gg on the earth = 10m/s210 \, \text{m/s}^2):

  • A

    1cm1 \, \text{cm}

  • B

    1mm1 \, \text{mm}

  • C

    0.1mm0.1 \, \text{mm}

  • D

    0.1cm0.1 \, \text{cm}
