The length of a rod is 20 cm and area of cross-section 2 cm2. The Young's modulus of the material of wire is 1.4×1011 N/m2. If the rod is compressed by 5 kg-wt along its length, then increase in the energy of the rod in joules will be
A
8.57×10−6
B
22.5×10−4
C
9.8×10−5
D
45.0×10−5
Answer
8.57×10−6
Explanation
Solution
Energy = 21Fl=21×F×(AYFL)=21×AYF2L
=21×2×10−4×1.4×1011(50)2×20×10−2
