STANDARD Physics Stress and Strain MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A steel rod of length 1 m and radius 10 mm is stretched by a force 100 kN along its length. The stress produced in the rod is (Y_steel = 2 × 10¹¹ N m⁻²)

A

3.18 × 10⁶ N m⁻²

B

3.18 × 10⁷ N m⁻²

C

3.18 × 10⁸ N m⁻²

D

3.18 × 10⁹ N m⁻²

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

The stress is calculated using the formula Stress = Force/Area. With a radius of 10 mm, the area is π(10⁻²)² m². The stress produced is 3.18 × 10⁸ N m⁻².
