An aluminum cylinder with a radius of 2.7 cm and a height of 67 cm is used as one leg of a workbench. The workbench pushes down

on the cylinder with a force of 3.2×104N. What is the compressive strain of the cylinder? Young's modulus for aluminum is 7.0×1010Pa. Express your answer using two significant figures. Compressive strain = nothing
By what distance does the cylinder's height decrease as a result of the forces on it?

Answer:

1.9\times 10^{-4}

1.2\times 10^{-4}\ m

Explanation:

r = Radius = 2.7 cm

F = Force = 3.2\times 10^4\ N

A = Area = \pi r^2

\sigma = Stress = \frac{F}{A}

E = Young's modulus = 7\times 10^{10}\ Pa

\epsilon = Strain

L_0 = Original length = 67 cm

\Delta L = Change in length

Young's modulus is given by

E=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=\frac{\sigma}{E}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=\frac{\frac{3.2\times 10^4}{\pi 0.027^2}}{7\times 10^{10}}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=0.0001996=1.9\times 10^{-4}

Strain is 1.9\times 10^{-4}

Strain is given by

\epsilon=\frac{\Delta L}{L_0}\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=\epsilon\times L_0\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=1.9\times 10^{-4}\times 0.67\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=0.0001273\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=1.2\times 10^{-4}\ m

The cylinder height decreases by 1.2\times 10^{-4}\ m

You are holding a shopping basket at the grocery store with two 0.55-kg cartons of cereal at the left end of the basket. the bas
stepan [7]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The basket is represented by a weightless rigid beam of length 0.78 m.
The x-coordinate is measured from the left end of the basket.

The mass at x=0 is 2*0.55 = 1.1 kg.
The weight acting at x = 0 is W₁ = 1.1*9.8 = 10.78 N

The mass near the right end is 1.8 kg.
Its weight is W₂ = 1.8*9.8 = 17.64 N

The fulcrum is in the middle of the basket, therefore its location is
x = 0.78/2 = 0.39 m.

For equilibrium, the sum of moments about the fulcrum is zero.
Therefore
(10.78 N)*(0.39 m) - (17.64 N)*(x-0.39 m) = 0
4.2042 - 17.64x + 6.8796 = 0
-17.64x = -11.0838
x = 0.6283 m

Answer:  0.63 m from the left end.

How is the density of a substance calculated?
den301095 [7]
1).  Take a sample of the substance.  The sample should be the largest
possible that will allow it to be be easily handled and the following steps
to be performed with it. 
(The density doesn't depend on the size of the sample, and every sample
of the same substance has the same density.  But using a larger sample
can improve the accuracy of the measurements you make, and therefore
improve the accuracy of the density you derive for the substance.)

2). Ask or measure the mass of the sample.

3). Ask or measure the volume of the sample.

4). Divide the mass by the volume. Their quotient is the density
of the substance.
