Question

Young’s modules of material of a wire of length ‘L’ and cross-sectional area A is Y. If the length of the wire is doubled and cross-sectional area is halved then Young’s modules will be :

G1 Physics · Accepted Answer

Young’s modulus depends on the material, not on the length and cross-sectional area of the wire. Therefore, Young’s modulus remains same. Hence, the answer is Y.
