A wire has a cross sectional area of 4.00 mm2 and is stretched by 0.100 mm by a certain force. How far will a wire of the same m
Nina [5.8K]

Answer: 0.05\ mm

Explanation:

Given

Cross-sectional area of wire A_1=4\ mm^2

Extension of wire \delta l=0.1\ mm

Extension in a wire is given by

\Rightarrow \delta l=\dfrac{FL}{AE}

where, E=\text{Youngs modulus}

\Rightarrow \delta_1=\dfrac{FL}{A_1E}\quad \ldots(i)

for same force, length and material

\Rightarrow \delta_2=\dfrac{FL}{A_2E}\quad \ldots(ii)

Divide (i) and (ii)

\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.1}{\delta_2}=\dfrac{A_2}{A_1}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.1\times \dfrac{4}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow \delta_2=0.05\ mm

If the architectural plans show the rough opening of a window to be 3'-3" x 4'-9" , the height of the opening should actually me
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

height of the opening actually measure is 4'-9"

Explanation:

given data

window size = 3'-3" x 4'-9"

solution

height of the opening should actually measure will be 4'-9" in 3'-3" x 4'-9"

because according to architectural plan height can not be more than the opening size of window

and we can't take smaller height also

so fit in opening window we should take same height of  height of opening window and that is here 4'-9"

so here height of the opening actually measure is 4'-9"

Which statement explains how it is possible to carry books to school without changing the kinetic or potential energy of the boo
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant

Explanation:

FOR CONSTANT KINETIC ENERGY:

The kinetic energy of a body depends upon its speed according to its formula:

ΔK.E = (1/2)mΔv²

So, for Δv = 0 m/s

ΔK.E = 0 J

So, for keeping kinetic energy constant, the books must be moved at constant speed without acceleration.

FOR CONSTANT POTENTIAL ENERGY:

The potential energy of a body depends upon its height according to its formula:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

So, for Δh = 0 m/s

ΔP.E = 0 J

So, for keeping potential energy constant, the books must be moved at constant height.

So, the correct option is:

<u>a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant</u>

Two Earth satellites, A and B, each of mass m, are to be launched into circular orbits about Earth's center. Satellite A is to o
Pachacha [2.7K]

(a) 0.448

The gravitational potential energy of a satellite in orbit is given by:

U=-\frac{GMm}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the satellite's mass

r is the distance of the satellite from the Earth's centre, which is sum of the Earth's radius (R) and the altitude of the satellite (h):

r = R + h

We can therefore write the ratio between the potentially energy of satellite B to that of satellite A as

\frac{U_B}{U_A}=\frac{-\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}}{-\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}}=\frac{R+h_A}{R+h_B}

and so, substituting:

R=6370 km\\h_A = 5970 km\\h_B = 21200 km

We find

\frac{U_B}{U_A}=\frac{6370 km+5970 km}{6370 km+21200 km}=0.448

(b) 0.448

The kinetic energy of a satellite in orbit around the Earth is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{r}

So, the ratio between the two kinetic energies is

\frac{K_B}{K_A}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}}{\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}}=\frac{R+h_A}{R+h_B}

Which is exactly identical to the ratio of the potential energies. Therefore, this ratio is also equal to 0.448.

(c) B

The total energy of a satellite is given by the sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy:

E=U+K=-\frac{GMm}{R+h}+\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h}

For satellite A, we have

E_A=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_A}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg)(28.8 kg)}{6.37\cdot 10^6 m+5.97\cdot 10^6 m}=-4.65\cdot 10^8 J

For satellite B, we have

E_B=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{GMm}{R+h_B}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})(5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg)(28.8 kg)}{6.37\cdot 10^6 m+21.2\cdot 10^6 m}=-2.08\cdot 10^8 J

So, satellite B has the greater total energy (since the energy is negative).

(d) -2.57\cdot 10^8 J

The difference between the energy of the two satellites is:

E_B-E_A=-2.08\cdot 10^8 J-(-4.65\cdot 10^8 J)=-2.57\cdot 10^8 J
