A wire has tensile strain one and it is cut into half,then strain of each part is:
Correct answer: A. 1
- A. 1
- B. 2
- C. 5
- D. 1/2
Explanation
The tensile strain remains the same because it is defined asthe ratio of change in length to the original length, which is aproperty of the material and it is independent of its length.
