A brass rod of cross-sectional area 1 cm2 and length 0.2 m is compressed lengthwise by a weight of 5 kg. If Young's modulus of elasticity of brass is 1×1011 N/m2 and g=10 m/sec2, then increase in the energy of the rod will be
A
10−5J
B
2.5×10−5J
C
5×10−5J
D
2.5×10−4J
Answer
2.5×10−5J
Explanation
Solution
U=21×Y( stress )2× volume= 21×A2×YF2×A×L
=21×AYF2L=21×1×10−4×1×1011(50)2×0.2=
