A wire is suspended from the ceiling and stretched under the action of a weight \(F\) suspended from its other end. The force exerted by the ceiling on it is equal and opposite to the weight.
(a) | Tensile stress at any cross-section \(A\) of the wire is \(F/A.\) |
(b) | Tensile stress at any cross-section is zero. |
(c) | Tensile stress at any cross-section \(A\) of the wire is \(2F/A.\) |
(d) | Tension at any cross-section \(A\) of the wire is \(F.\) |
The correct statements are:
1. | (a), (b) | 2. | (a), (d) |
3. | (b), (c) | 4. | (a), (c) |
