1st Case: For cast iron 2nd Case: For Al
F = 6.5 × 103 N F = 6.5 × 103 N
l = 1.3 m l = 2.6 m
r = 0.2 × 10-2 m ⇒ A = 0.04π × 10-4 m2 A = 0.04π × 10-4 m2
Y = 100 × 1010 N/m2 Y = 7 × 1010 N/m2
Now, formula of Young's modulus is
\(Y={1\over 2}{Fl\over A△l}\) \(△{l}_{2} = {1\over 2}{FL\over AY}\)
⇒\(△{l}_{1} = {1\over 2}{FL\over AY}\) \(={1\over 2}×{6.5×10^3×2.6\over 0.04π×10^{-4}×7×10^{10}} \)
\(={1\over 2}×{6.5×10^3×1.3\over 0.04π×10^{-4}×100×10^{10}} \)
In order to get the elongation of the whole rod, calculate △l1 and △l2 separately and add them.
∴ Elongation of rod = △l1 + △l2
I hope its clear :)
