PHXI09:MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF SOLIDS

369920 Young's modulus of the material of a wire is \(Y\). On pulling the wire by a force \(F\), the increase in its length is \(x\). The potential energy of the stretched wire is

1 \(\dfrac{1}{2} Y x\)
2 \(\dfrac{1}{2} F x\)
3 \(\dfrac{1}{2} F x^{2}\)
4 None of these
