A wire of lengthL, area of cross sectionAis hanging from a fixed support. The length of the wire changes toL1when massMis suspended from its free end. The expression for Young's modulus is:NEET 2020 (Phase 1)

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

We know that, 

Young's modulus, Y=FLAΔL

Given,

F=Weight of suspended body=Mg and ∆L=L1-L.

So, we can write

Y=MgLAL1-L
