  • question_answer
    A wire suspended vertically from one of its ends is stretched by attaching a weight of 200N to the lower end. The weight stretches the wire by 1 mm. Then the elastic energy stored in the wire is

    A) 0.2 J

    B) 10 J  

    C) 20 J

    D) 0.1 J

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Elastic energy \[\frac{1}{2}\times F\times x\] \[F=200\text{ }N,\text{ }x=1mm={{10}^{-3}}m\] \[\therefore \,\,\,E=\frac{1}{2}\times 200\times 1\times {{10}^{-3}}=0.1J\]
