JEE MAIN - Physics (2019 - 12th January Evening Slot - No. 1)

A load of mass M kg is suspended from a steel wire of length 2m and radius 1.0 mm in Searle's apparatus experiment. The increase in length produced in the wire is 4.0 mm. Now the load is fully immersed in a liquid of relative density 2. The relative density of the material of load is 8.

The new value of increase in length of the steel wire is:
5.0 mm
zero
3.0 mm
4.0 mm

Explanation

JEE Main 2019 (Online) 12th January Evening Slot Physics - Properties of Matter Question 222 English Explanation
$${F \over A} = y.{{\Delta \ell } \over \ell }$$

$$\Delta \ell \propto F$$         . . .. (i)

T $$=$$ mg

T $$=$$ mg $$-$$ fB $$=$$ mg $$-$$ $${m \over {{\rho _b}}}.{\rho _\ell }.$$g

$$ = \left( {1 - {{{\rho _\ell }} \over {{\rho _b}}}} \right)$$ mg

$$ = \left( {1 - {2 \over 8}} \right)$$ mg

T' $$=$$ $${3 \over 4}$$ mg

From (i)

$${{\Delta \ell '} \over {\Delta \ell }} = {{T'} \over T} = {3 \over 4}$$

$$\Delta \ell ' = {3 \over 4}.\Delta \ell = 3$$ mm
