A vessel of \(1\times 10^{-3}\) m3 volume contains oil. When a pressure of \(1.2 \times10^5\) N/m2 is applied on it, then volume decreases by \(0.3 \times 10^{-6}\) m3. The bulk modulus of oil is:
1. | \(1 \times 10^6 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2 \) | 2. | \(2 \times 10^7 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2 \) |
3. | \(4 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2 \) | 4. | \(6 \times 10^{10} \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m}^2\) |

The stress-strain curves are drawn for two different materials \(X\) and \(Y.\) It is observed that the ultimate strength point and the fracture point are close to each other for material \(X\) but are far apart for material \(Y.\) We can say that the materials \(X\) and \(Y\) are likely to be (respectively):
1. | ductile and brittle |
2. | brittle and ductile |
3. | brittle and plastic |
4. | plastic and ductile |

A steel ring of radius \(\mathrm{r}\) and cross-section area \(\mathrm{A}\) is fitted onto a wooden disc of radius \(\mathrm{R}(\mathrm{R}>\mathrm{r}).\) If Young's modulus is \(\mathrm{E},\) then the force with which the steel ring is expanded is:
1. | \(\mathrm{AE} \frac{\mathrm{R}}{\mathrm{r}} \) | 2. | \(A E \frac{R-r}{r} \) |
3. | \(\frac{E}{A} \frac{R-r}{A} \) | 4. | \(\frac{\mathrm{Er}}{\mathrm{AR}}\) |
