Two wires diameter 0.25 cm. One made of steel and the other made of brass are loaded as shown in figure. The unloaded length of steel wire is 1.5 m and that of brass wire is 1.0 m. Compute the elongations of the steel and the brass wires.
Diameter of the wires, d =0.25m
Hence, the radius of the wires, r=d2=0.125cm
Total force on the brass wire:
F2=6×9.8=10×9.8=58.8N
