13. CASE BASED QUESTION-(5x1=5)

Stress-Strain Curve

The graph shown below shows qualitatively the relation between the stress and the strain as
the deformation gradually increases. Within Hooke’s limit for a certain region stress and
strain relation is linear. Beyond that up to a certain value of strain the body is still elastic
and if deforming forces are removed the body recovers its original shape.

1. Within the limit of elasticity, which of the following graph obey Hooke’s law?

2. Why steel is more elastic than rubber ?

4. When an elastic material with Young’s modulus Y is subjected to stretching stress S,


what is the elastic energy stored per unit volume of the material ?

4. Stress- strain curve for two wires A and B are as shown in the figure
a. Which material is more ductile? b. Which wire has greater value of Young’s
Modulus?

14. Write any two differences between gravitational potential and gravitational potential
energy.
15. State Kepler’s laws of planetary motion in terms of: -
a-Law of area,b- Law of periods.
16. In a car lift, compressed air exerts a force F1 on a small piston having a radius of 5
cm. This pressure is transmitted to a second piston of radius 10 cm. If the mass of the
car to be lifted is 1350 kg, Calculate F1.What is the pressure necessary to accomplish
this task?

17. Derive a relation showing how g varies with depth.


Assuming the earth to be a sphere of uniform mass density, how much would a body
weigh half way down to the center of the earth if it weighed 250 N on the surface?

18. Define terminal velocity. Eight rain drops of radius 1mm each falling downward
with terminal velocity 5 m/s. coalesce to form big drop. Find the terminal velocity of
the big drop.
19. What is orbital velocity? Derive an expression for it and also derive time period of a
satellite.

wets the glass and not mercury. c) What is the effect of temperature on the surface
tension of a liquid?
