Answer: <u>elastically</u> deformed or <u>non-permanently</u> deformed

Explanation:

According to classical mechanics, there are two types of deformations:

-Plastic deformation (also called irreversible or permanent deformation), in which the material does not return to its original form after removing the applied force, therefore it is said that the material was permanently deformed.

This is because the material undergoes irreversible thermodynamic changes while it is subjected to the applied forces.

-Elastic deformation (also called reversible or non-permanent deformation), in which the material returns to its original shape after removing the applied force that caused the deformation.

In this case t<u>he material also undergoes thermodynamic changes, but these are reversible, causing an increase in its internal energy by transforming it into elastic potential energy.</u>

<u />

Therefore, the situation described in the question is related to elastic deformation.

For an object in uniform circular motion, what can you say about the directions of the velocity, acceleration, and net force vec
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: b) The velocity vector is perpendicular to the acceleration vector; the acceleration vector is parallel to the net force vector.

Explanation: A change in velocity creates an acceleration. As the object rotates through the circular path it is constantly changing direction, and hence accelerating, which causes a constant force to act upon the object. This Force acts towards the center of curvature, directly toward the axis of rotation in a direction parallel to the acceleration of the body along the path. Because the object is moving perpendicular to the force, the path followed by the object is a circular one. Hence the velocity of the object is perpendicular to the acceleration.

During a braking test, a car is brought to rest beginning from an initial speed of 60 mi/hr in a distance of 120 ft. With the sa
maw [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Initial speed u=60\ mi/hr\approx 88\ ft/s

distance traveled before coming to rest d_1=120\ ft

using equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

0-(88)^2=2\times a\times 120---1

for u_2=80\ mi/hr\approx 117.33\ ft/s

using same relation we get

0-(117.33)^2=2\times a\times (d_2)----2

divide 1 and 2 we get

(\frac{88}{117.33})^2=\frac{120}{d_2}

d_2=213.32\ ft

So a distance if 213.32 ft is required to stop the vehicle with 80 mph speed

How did Archimedes measure the mass of the block of gold?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
Archimedes found a piece of gold and a piece of silver with exactly the same mass. He dropped the gold  into a bowl filled to the brim with water and measured the volume of water that spilled out. Then he did the same thing with the piece of solver. Although both metals had the same mass, the silver gad a larger volume; therefore, it displaced more water than the gold did. That's because the silver was less dense than gold. Afterwards he applied the same method to the crown for the king he served who had got a new crown from a jeweler who gave it to him. Archimedes found a piece of pure gold that had the same mass as the crown. He placed the pure gold chuck and the crown in water, one at a time. The crown displaced more water the piece of gold. Therefore, its density was less than pure gold.

You are an electrician installing the wiring in a new home. The homeowner desires that a ceiling fan with light kits be installe
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

3 fans per 15 A circuit

Explanation:

From the question and the data given, the light load let fan would have been

(60 * 4)/120 = 240/120 = 2 A.

Next, we add the current of the fan motor to it, so,

2 A + 1.8 A = 3.8 A.

Since the devices are continuos duty and the circuit current must be limited to 80%, then the Breaker load max would be

0.8 * 15 A = 12 A.

Now, we can get the number if fans, which will be

12 A/ 3.8 A = 3.16 fans, or approximately, 3 fans per 15 A circuit.
