A piece of wire of Young's moduluS 2.0 x 10" Pa, of diameter 2.0 mm and of length 2.0 m is suspendedfrom a fixed point and a weight of 50 N attached to its free end. If the elastic limit of the material is notexceeded, then the material would extend by A 3.98 x 10“ m B 7.66x 10“ m. 1.59 x 104 m D. 3.18 x 10m.
