Part a· 2 steps
Identify the given values for part (i).
The force applied to the wire is .
The extension produced is .Calculate the potential energy stored in the wire.
The potential energy (elastic potential energy) stored in a stretched wire is given by the formula:
Substitute the given values:
The potential energy in the wire is .
Part b
Identify the given values for part (ii).
The length of the wire is .
The cross-sectional area is .
The extension is .
The Young's Modulus of the wire is .Calculate the work done in stretching the wire.
The work done in stretching a wire is equal to the elastic potential energy stored, which can be expressed using Young's Modulus:
Substitute the given values:
The work done in stretching the wire is .
