Young's modulus is same for both the wires since the material is same.
For the first wire,
Y=πr2lfL...(i)
For the second wire,
Y=4πr2l′2f(2L)...(ii)
Dividing (i) by (ii)
πr2lfL×4fL4πr2l′=1⇒l′=l
A wire of length L and radius r is clamped rigidly at one end. When the other end of the wire is pulled by a forcef, its length increases by l. Another wire of same material of length 2L and radius 2r is pulled by a force 2f. Then the increase in its length will be:

Net gravitational force at the center of a square is found to be $F_{1}$ when four particles having mass $M, 2 M, 3 M$ and $4 M$ are placed at the four corners of the square as shown in figure and it is $F_{2}$ when the positions of $3 M$ and $4 M$ are interchanged. The ratio $\frac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}$ is $\frac{\alpha}{\sqrt{5}}$. The value of $\alpha$ is $\_\_\_\_$. 
A particle of mass 2 kg is projected vertically upward with a speed of 30 m/s. The maximum height reached by the particle is (g = 10 m/s²):
Two projectiles are projected with the same initial velocities at the $15^\circ$ and $30^\circ$ with respect to the horizontal. The ratio of their ranges is $1:x$. The value of $x$ is:
In an experiment the values of two spring constants were measured as $k_{1}=(10 \pm 0.2) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$ and $k_{2}=(20 \pm 0.3) \mathrm{N} / \mathrm{m}$. If these springs are connected in parallel, then the percentage error in equivalent spring constant is :
The surface tension of a soap solution is $3.5 \times 10^{-2}$ N/m. The work required to increase the radius of a soap bubble from $1$ cm to $2$ cm is $\alpha \times 10^{-6}$ J. The value of $\alpha$ is _____. ($\pi = 22/7$)
