Question
In an experiment, brass and steel wires of length 1 m each with areas of cross section 1mm2 are used. The wires are connected in series and one end of the combined wire is connected to a rigid support and other end is subjected to elongation. The stress required to produce a net elongation of 0.2 mm is, [Given, the Young's Modulus for steel and brass are, respectively, 120 × 109 N/m2 and 60 × 109 N/m2]
8.0 × 106 N/m2
1.2 × 106 N/m2
0.2 × 106 N/m2
1.8 × 106 N/m2
