The correct option is A L2ρgY
Calculate breaking stress of wire.
Formula used: σ=FA
Given, length of wire =L
Density of the wire = ρ
and Young’s modulus =Y
Let the breaking stress of wire be 𝜎
Therefore,
σ=FA=ρALgA
σ=ρLg
Calculate elongation length of wire.
Formula used: Y=stressstrain
Let the elongation in the wire be l.
As we know, the young modulus will be
Y=stressstrain
Y=ρL2gl
l=ρL2gY
