A wire of length 0.5 m and area of cross-section 4 × 10 − 6 m 2 at a temperature of 100 ∘ C is suspended vertically by fixing its upper end to the ceiling. The wire is then cooled to 0 ∘ C , but is prevented from contracting, by attaching a mass at the lower end. If the mass of the wire is negligible, then the value of the mass attached to the wire is
[Young's modulus of material of the wire= 10 11 N m − 2 ; coefficient of linear expansion of the material of the wire = 10 − 5 K − 1 and acceleration due to gravity = 10 m s − 2 ]
[Young's modulus of material of the wire
