Answer:

a. stress in steel rod is -9.6 X 10⁷pa while stress in brass rod is -7.2 X 10⁷pa

b. new junction from steel rod is 40.0192cm while new junction from brass rod is 30.024cm

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> <u>identify the given parameters and standard parameters</u>

⇒Steel rod: length of rod = 40.000 cm

Young modulus(Υ) = 20 X 10¹⁰ pa

coefficient of linear expansion(α) = 1.2 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹

stress in the rod =?

⇒Brass rod: length of rod = 30.000 cm

Young modulus(Υ) = 9 X 10¹⁰ pa

coefficient of linear expansion(α) = 2.0 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹

stress in the rod =?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>Step 2:</u> <u>calculate the stress in each rod</u>

⇒Steel rod: stress in the rod = -Y*α*ΔT

= (-20 X 10¹⁰ pa) (1.2 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹)(60-20)K

= (-20 X 10¹⁰ pa) (1.2 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹)(40)K

= -9.6 X 10⁷ pa

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

⇒Brass rod: stress in the rod = -Y*α*ΔT

= (-9 X 10¹⁰ pa) (2.0 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹)(60-20)K

= (-9 X 10¹⁰ pa) (2.0 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹)(40)K

= -7.2 X 10⁷ pa

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

∴ stress in steel rod is -9.6 X 10⁷pa while stress in brass rod is -7.2 X 10⁷pa

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>Step 3:</u> <u>calculate the new length of each rod</u>

⇒Steel rod: New length = ΔL + L₀

ΔL = α*L₀*ΔT

ΔL = (1.2 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹)(40cm)(40)K

ΔL = 1920 X 10⁻⁵ cm = 0.0192cm

New length = ΔL + L₀ = 0.0192cm + 40cm

New length = 40.0192cm

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

⇒Brass rod: New length = ΔL + L₀

ΔL = α*L₀*ΔT

ΔL = (2.0 X 10⁻⁵ K⁻¹)(30cm)(40)K

ΔL = 2400 X 10⁻⁵ cm = 0.024cm

New length = ΔL + L₀ = 0.024cm + 30cm

New length = 30.024cm

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Therefore, new junction from steel rod is 40.0192cm while new junction from brass rod is 30.024cm

Answers:

a) $2.82(10)^{21} kg$

b) $1410 J$

c) $36.62 m/s$

Explanation:

<h3>a) Mass of the continent</h3>

Density $\rho$ is defined as a relation between mass $m$ and volume $V$ :

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$ (1)

Where:

$\rho=2720 kg/m^{3}$ is the average density of the continent

$m$ is the mass of the continent

$V$ is the volume of the continent, which can be estimated is we assume it as a a slab of rock 5300 km on a side and 37 km deep:

$V=(length)(width)(depth)=(5300 km)(5300 km)(37 km)=1,030,330,000 km^{3} \frac{(1000 m)^{3}}{1 km^{3}}=1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3}$

Finding the mass:

$m=\rho V$ (2)

$m=(2720 kg/m^{3})(1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3})$ (3)

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ (4) This is the mass of the continent

<h3>b) Kinetic energy of the continent</h3>

Kinetic energy $K$ is given by the following equation:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$ (5)

Where:

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ is the mass of the continent

$v=4.8 \frac{cm}{year} \frac{1 m}{100 cm} \frac{1 year}{365 days} \frac{1 day}{24 hours} \frac{1 hour}{3600 s}=1(10)^{-9} m/s$ is the velocity of the continent

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.82(10)^{21} kg)(1(10)^{-9} m/s)^{2}$ (6)

$K=1410 J$ (7) This is the kinetic energy of the continent

<h3>c) Speed of the jogger</h3>

If we have a jogger with mass $m=77 kg$ and the same kinetic energy as that of the continent $1413 J$ , we can find its velocity by isolating $v$ from (5):
