A one metre steel wire of negligible mass and area of cross-section...

A one metre steel wire of negligible mass and area of cross-section 0.01 cm20.01 \mathrm{~cm}^2 is kept on a smooth horizontal table with one end fixed. A ball of mass 1 kg1 \mathrm{~kg} is attached to the other end. The ball and the wire are rotating with an angular velocity of ω\omega. If the elongation of the wire is 2 mm2 \mathrm{~mm}, then ω\omega is (Young's modulus of steel =2×1011Nm−2=2 \times 10^{11} \mathrm{Nm}^{-2} )

Options

  1. A5rad\mathrms−15 \mathrm{rad} \mathrms^{-1}
  2. B10rad\mathrms−110 \mathrm{rad} \mathrms^{-1}
  3. C15rad\mathrms−115 \mathrm{rad} \mathrms^{-1}
  4. D20rad\mathrms−120 \mathrm{rad} \mathrms^{-1}

Correct answer

D. 20rad\mathrms−120 \mathrm{rad} \mathrms^{-1}
