A flexible shaft consists of a 3 mm diameter steel wire in a flexible hollow tube which imposes a frictional torque of 0.04 N m

per meter when the shaft rotates. The shaft is to be used for applying a torque of 0.1 N m to actuate a switch. What is the maximum length of shaft that may be used if the shear stress in the shaft is not to exceed 50 MPa?

Answer:

2.5m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the rotational effect of a force on a body.

The torque T for the maximum shear stress is given as 0.1 Nm

Frictional torque is the torque caused by a frictional force

The frictional torque F is given as 0.04 Nm/m

The maximum length of the shaft is thus given as

L = T / F

  = 0.1/0.04

L= 2.5 m

5. Left

Explanation: centripetal acceleration is the acceleration that acts on an object which is moving by circular motion. The direction of the centripetal acceleration is always towards the centre of the circular trajectory: that means that for a car following a bend, the direction of the centripetal acceleration is towards the centre of the bend, and so it is towards the left if the bend is towards the left, and towards the right if the bend is towards the right.

In this example, the road in this bend is going to the left, so centripetal acceleration is toward the left as well.


6. Greater

Explanation: Inertia represents the tendency of an object at staying in motion if it is moving, and at staying at rest if the object is at rest. We can also see inertia as a measure of "how difficult it is" to put an object in motion. Due to this definition, we can also notice that inertia is directly proportional to the mass of the object: the greater the mass, the greater the inertia, because it is more difficult to put the object in motion.

So, in this example, the greater the boulder's mass, the greater inertia it has.


7. Direction

Explanation: displacement is a vector quantity that represents the difference in position between an object and a starting point. Because it is a vector, displacement consists of two elements:

- A magnitude, which is equal to the object's distance from the starting point

- A direction, again compared to the starting point

So, displacement depends on the object's distance and direction from the starting point.


8. Negative

Explanation: acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity; in formula:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where v is the final velocity, u the initial velocity, and t the time taken to accelerate from u to v. From the formula, we see that:

- When the final velocity (v) is greater than the initial velocity (u), acceleration is positive

- When the final velocity (v) is smaller than the initial velocity (u), acceleration is negative

In this problem, we have a car slowing down: it means that the final velocity is smaller than the initial velocity, so in this case acceleration is negative.

jim(mass=100kg) rollerblades on a smooth horizontal floor at a constant speed of 2.0 m/s for a distance of 5m in 5 seconds. What
azamat
Since Jim's speed is constant and he is moving in a straight line, he is not accelerating, and we know the net force on him is zero. There is no Force anywhere doing any work. So no power is being added to him or dissipated by him.
