A cube and a sphere made of cast iron (each of volume $$1000\,\,c{m^3}$$) were cast under identical conditions. The time taken for solidifying the cube was $$4$$ $$s.$$ The solidification time (in $$s$$) for the sphere is _____________________

In a two stage wire drawing operation, the fractional reduction (ratio of change in cross sectional area to initial cross sectional area ) in the first stage is $$0.4.$$ The fractional reduction in the second stage is $$0.3.$$ The overall fractional reduction is

The flowing stress (in $$MPa$$) of a material is given by $$\sigma = 500{\varepsilon ^{0.1}},$$
When $$\varepsilon $$ is true strain. The Young's modulus of elasticity of the material is $$200$$ $$GPa.$$ A block of thickness $$100$$ $$mm$$ made of this material is compressed to $$95$$ $$mm$$ thickness and then the load is removed. The final dimension of the block (in $$mm$$) is ____________
