Answer:

The change in temperature of 576.9°C will produce an elongation of 9 inches per feet in steel.

Explanation:

The formula for linear expansion of a material is:

ΔL = αLΔT

where, ΔL = change in length

             L = Original length

           ΔT = Change in temperature

             α = coefficient of linear expansion

For steel, α = 13 x 10^-6 /°C

                L = 100 ft

                ΔL = (9 in)(1 ft/12 in) = 0.75 ft

Therefore,

0.75 ft = (13 x 10^-6 /°C)(100 ft)ΔT

<u>ΔT = 576.9°C</u>

Two engineering students, John with a weight of 92 kg and Mary with a weight of 46 kg, are 30 m apart. Suppose each has a 0.04%
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

F = 6.27 x 10 ¹⁹ N

Explanation:

Given

m₁ = 92 kg, m₂ = 46 kg, % = 0.04% N = 6.022 x 10²³ Z = 18, e = 1.6 x 10 ⁻¹⁹ C, M = 0.018 kg/mol

q₁ = % * [m * N * A * e / M ]  

q₁ = 0.0004 * [ ( 92 kg * 6.022 x 10²³ * 18 * 1.6 x 10 ⁻¹⁹ ) / (0.018 kg/mol ) ]

q₁ = 3.54 x 10⁶ C

q₂ = 0.0004 * [ ( 46 kg * 6.022 x 10²³ * 18 * 1.6 x 10 ⁻¹⁹ ) / (0.018 kg/mol ) ]

q₂ = 1.773 x 10⁶ C

Now to determine the electrostatic force con use the equation

F = K * q₁ * q₂ / d²

K = 8.99 x 10 ⁹

F = 8.99 x 10 ⁹ * 3.54 x 10⁶ C * 1.773 x 10⁶ C / (30m)²

F = 6.27 x 10 ¹⁹ N

Jack drops a tennis ball from the top of a skyscraper allowing it to fall freely. Neglecting air resistance, what is the velocit
Leto [7]
To determine the velocity of the ball falling, we need to use one kinematic equation which will allow as to calculate for the height of the skyscraper. This formula is expressed as:

y = v0t + at^2 / 2

v0 = 0 since it started at rest
a = g since it acts upon the gravitational force
t = 5 s

y = (9.81)(5)^2 / 2
y = 122.625 m

To obtain velocity we divide the height with time,

v = 122.625 / 5 = 24.53 m/s

closest would be option C.
