A typical machine tests the tensile strength of a sheet of material cut into a standard size of 5.00 centimeters wide by 10.0 ce

ntimeters long. The machine consists of one clamp that holds the entire width (5.00 centimeters) so that it hangs vertically. A second clamp is placed on the lower end of the object, to which a variable downward force is applied. The force is slowly increased until the object ruptures, and the breaking force is recorded.
A strip of aluminum foil with a thickness of 15.0 micrometers and matching the size recommendations of the machine is placed in the machine and tested. The force needed to rupture the foil is found to be 233 newtons. What is the tensile strength of the aluminum foil sample?

Answer:

Explanation:

tensile strength is stress that is needed to break the wire made of the material .

Here force required to break the sheet of material = 233 N

cross sectional area of the foil = breadth x thickness

= 5 x 10⁻² x 15 x 10⁻⁶ m²

= 75 x 10⁻⁸ m²

breaking stress = force / cross sectional area

= 233 / 75 x 10⁻⁸

= 3.1 x 10⁸ Pa .

Tensile strength = 3.1 x 10⁸ Pa .

Answer:

4363.3231 feets²

Explanation:

Given that :

Distance, r = 50 ft

θ = 200°

The arc length of area covered :

Arc length = θ/360° * πr²

Arc length = (200/360) * 50 ft ^2 * π

Arc length = 0.5555555 * 2500 * π

Arc length = 4363.3231 feets²

How does your power output in climbing the stairs compare to the power output of a 100-watt light bulb? if your power could have
cricket20 [7]
1) Assuming an adult person has an average mass of m=80 kg, and assuming it takes about 30 seconds to climb 5 meters of stairs, the energy used by the person is
E=mgh=(80 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(5 m)=3924 J
So the power output is 
P= \frac{E}{t}= \frac{3924 J}{30 s} \sim 130 W

And since the estimate we made is very rough, we can say that the power output of the person is comparable to the power output of the light bulb of 100 W.

2) Based on the results we found in the previous part of the exercise, since the power output of the person is comparable to the power output of 1 light bulb of 100 W, we can say that the person could have kept burning only one 100-W light bulb during the climb.

If the potential difference across a 12-ohm resistor is 6 volts, the current through the resistor is?
larisa86 [58]
Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the resistor and directly to the potential difference across it.

I = V/R = 6/12 = 0.5 A
