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

A certain unbalanced force gives a 5kg object an acceleration of 15 m/s2. What would be the acceleration if the same force was a
stira [4]

Answer:

a2 = 2.5 m/s2

Explanation:

F1 = m1 a1 We use the same force so F1 = F2

= 5kg × 15m/s2 F2 = m2 a2

= 75N a2 is required

a2 = F2 / m2

= 75N / 30 kg

= 2.5 m/s2

As you learned in Part B, a non-burning helium core surrounded by a shell of hydrogen-burning gas characterizes the subgiant sta
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

E- The star becomes a red giant (LATEST STAGE)

F- The surface of the star becomes brighter and cooler

C- Pressure from the star's hydrogen-burning shell causes the non burning envelope to expand

A- The shell of hydrogen surrounding the star's nonburning helium core ignites.

D- The star's non burning helium core starts to contract and heat up

B- Pressure in the star's core decreases (EARLIEST STAGE)

(A star moves away from the main sequence once its core runs out of hydrogen to fuse into helium. The energy once supplied by hydrogen burning reduces and the core starts to compress under the force of gravity. This contraction allows the core and surrounding layers to heat up. Finally, the hydrogen shell around the core becomes hot enough to ignite hydrogen burning.

Waves transport
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

d)energy

Explanation:

Waves can transfer energy over distance without moving matter the entire distance. For example, an ocean wave can travel many kilometers without the water itself moving many kilometers. The water moves up and down—a motion known as a disturbance. It is the disturbance that travels in a wave, transferring energy.
