QJEEM22Ph5ee3: JEE Main 2022 Physics - Class 11 JEEM22Ph5ee3 Solution: The elongation of a wire on the surface of the earth is 10 − 4…

The elongation of a wire on the surface of the earth is 10−4 m. The same wire of same dimensions is elongated by 6 × 10−5 m on another planet. The acceleration due to gravity on the planet will be ____________ ms−2. (Take acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth = 10 ms−2)

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

on earth, Δl=10−4m

on other planet Δl′=6×10−5m

Δl=FlAy⇒Δl′Δl=F′lAyFlAy=mg′mg

⇒g′=Δl′Δl×g

=6×10−510−4×10

⇒g′=6 m/s2
