Answer: The Young's modulus for the wire is $6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2$

Explanation:

Young's Modulus is defined as the ratio of stress acting on a substance to the amount of strain produced.

The equation representing Young's Modulus is:

$Y=\frac{F/A}{\Delta l/l}=\frac{Fl}{A\Delta l}$

where,

Y = Young's Modulus

F = force exerted by the weight = $m\times g$

m = mass of the ball = 10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = $9.81m/s^2$

l = length of wire = 2.6 m

A = area of cross section = $\pi r^2$

r = radius of the wire = $\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.6mm}{2}=0.8mm=8\times 10^{-4}m$ (Conversion factor: 1 m = 1000 mm)

$\Delta l$ = change in length = 1.99 mm = $1.99\times 10^{-3}m$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$Y=\frac{10\times 9.81\times 2.6}{(3.14\times (8\times 10^{-4})^2)\times 1.99\times 10^{-3}}\\\\Y=6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2$

Hence, the Young's modulus for the wire is $6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2$

Displacement vectors of 4km north, 2km south, 5km north, 5km south combine to a total displacement of

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer

The combined displacement is 2km north

Explanation

Since displacement is a vector quantity, we take into account the direction.

Good for us all the displacement vectors are in the same dimension, so we can make north positive and south negative or vice-versa.

We now add to obtain,

$4+-2+5+-5$

This will simplify to

$=4-2+5-5=2$

Therefore the combined displacement is 2km north

Virty [35]

Answer:

N = 337.96 N

Explanation:

∅ = 32º

F = 249 N

m = 21 Kg

N = ?

We can apply:

∑ F = 0 (↑)

- Fy - W + N = 0 ⇒ N = Fy + W

⇒ F*Sin ∅ + m*g = N

⇒ N = (249 N*Sin32º) + (21 Kg*9.81 m/s²)

⇒ N = 337.96 N (↑)
