Which scenario involves acceleration?

1 answer:

4 0

Acceleration is caused when any force is applied to any moving object. This force can be an electric force, repulsion force, gravity, friction, etc .

And, force = mass x acceleration

This is the relationship between the force applied, the mass of the body on which force is applied and the acceleration.

Acceleration is applied to moving objects only because, as velocity = distance/time. Similarly, acceleration = velocity/time

A metal wire breaks when its tension reaches 100 newton. If the radius and length of the wire were both doubled then it would br

serg [7]

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

Since Young's modulus for the metal, E = σ/ε where σ = stress = F/A where F = force on metal and A = cross-sectional area, and ε = strain = e/L where e = extension of metal = change in length and L = length of metal wire.

So, E = σ/ε = FL/eA

Now, since at break extension = e.

So making e subject of the formula, we have

e = FL/EA = FL/Eπr² where r = radius of metal wire

Now, when the radius and length are doubled, we have our extension as e' = F'L'/Eπr'² where F' = new force on metal wire, L' = new length = 2L and r' = new radius = 2r

So, e' = F'(2L)/Eπ(2r)²

e' = 2F'L/4Eπr²

e' = F'L/2Eπr²

Since at breakage, both extensions are the same, e = e'

So, FL/Eπr² = F'L/2Eπr²

F = F'/2

F' = 2F

Since F = 100 N,

F' = 2 × 100 N = 200 N

So, If the radius and length of the wire were both doubled then it would break when the tension reached 200 Newtons.

Light intensity is?

Fittoniya [83]

The correct answer is:
The rate at which a waves energy flows through a given unit of area

In fact, light intensity is defined as the light power per unit of area:
 $I= \frac{P}{A}$
but the power is the energy carried by the light per unit of time:
 $P= \frac{E}{t}$
this means that the intensity can be rewritten as
 $I= \frac{E}{tA}$ 
So, it's basically the rate of energy (per unit of time) through a given surface.
