When the mass is removed, the length of the cable is found to be l0 = 4.66 m. After the mass is added, the length is remeasured

zaharov [31]

Answer:

$\gamma=6.07*10^5\frac{N}{m^2}$

Explanation:

For a linear elastic material Young's modulus is a constant that is given by:

$\gamma=\frac{F/A}{\Delta L/L_0}$

Here, F is the force exerted on an object under tensio, A is the area of the cross-section perpendicular to the applied force, $\Delta L$ is the amount by which the length of the object changes and $L_0$ is the original length of the object. In this case the force is the weight of the mass:

$F=mg\\F=55kg(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\F=539N$

Replacing the given values in Young's modulus formula:

$\gamma=\frac{F/\pi r^2}{(L_1-L_0)/L_0}\\\gamma=\frac{539N/\pi(0.045m)^2}{(5.31m-4.66m)/4.66m}\\\gamma=6.07*10^5\frac{N}{m^2}$

Below is an oscilloscope trace from an AC supply. Calculate the frequency of the supply if each horizontal division represents 0

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

20 hertz of frequency produced.

Explanation:

$\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{period} }$

Here we will find frequency and period should be in second, here given: 0.05 seconds

using the formula:

$\boxed{frequency = \frac{1}{0.05} }$

$\boxed{frequency =20}$

If an object accelerates from rest, with a constant of 8 m/s2, what will its velocity be after 35s?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

<em>Its speed will be 280 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the speed of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

If a is the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, vf can be calculated as:

$v_f=v_o+at$

The object accelerates from rest (vo=0) at a constant acceleration of $a=8\ m/s^2$ . The final speed at t=35 seconds is:

$v_f=0+8*35$

$v_f=280\ m/s$

Its speed will be 280 m/s
