Q)

Two wires of different materials are used to hang a rod horizontally tied from two ends of the rod of length $2m$. At what distance should a weight be hung on the rod from Wire-1 so that equal stresses are produced on both the wires. Wire 1: cross -sectional area $= 10^{-3}m^{2}$. Young's modulus $= 2 \times 10^{11} N/m^2$ Wire 2 : cross -sectional area $= 2 \times 10^{-3} m^{2}$. Young's modulus $= 1 \times 10^{11} N/m^2$

\[\begin {array} {1 1} (a)\;1.33\;m \\ (b)\;1.49\;m \\ (c)\;0.8\;m \\ (d)\;0.55\;m \end {array}\]
