Why does aluminum expand more than copper

2 answers:

5 0

It expands more because some metals expand more than others due to differences in the forces between the atoms / molecules. In metals such as iron the forces between the atoms are stronger so it is more difficult for the atoms to move around . In brass the forces are a little weaker so the atoms are free to move about more. Same for aluminum and copper. Hope this helps.

<h3>For common materials like many metals and compounds, the thermal expansion coefficient is inversely proportional to the melting point. Copper’s melting point is less than iron’s, so its thermal expansivity is greater.</h3>

Two ropes have equal length and are stretched the same way. The speed of a pulse on rope 1 is 1.4 times the speed on rope 2. Par

Answer:

m1/m2 = 0.51

Explanation:

First to all, let's gather the data. We know that both rods, have the same length. Now, the expression to use here is the following:

V = √F/u

This is the equation that describes the relation between speed of a pulse and a force exerted on it.

the value of "u" is:

u = m/L

Where m is the mass of the rod, and L the length.

Now, for the rod 1:

V1 = √F/u1 (1)

rod 2:

V2 = √F/u2 (2)

Now, let's express V1 in function of V2, because we know that V1 is 1.4 times the speed of rod 2, so, V1 = 1.4V2. Replacing in the equation (1) we have:

1.4V2 = √F/u1 (3)

Replacing (2) in (3):

1.4(√F/u2) = √F/u1 (4)

Now, let's solve the equation 4:

[1.4(√F/u2)]² = F/u1

1.96(F/u2) =F/u1

1.96F = F*u2/u1

1.96 = u2/u1 (5)

Now, replacing the expression of u into (5) we have the following:

1.96 = m2/L / m1/L

1.96 = m2/m1 (6)

But we need m1/m2 so:

1.96m1 = m2

m1/m2 = 1/1.96

m1/m2 = 0.51

Define torque qualitatively and quantitatively.

abruzzese [7]

When you use a wrench to tighten or loosen a nut on a bolt, you are applying torque. It is measured in units of force times distance. A force of F newtons pulling on a handle of L meters in length would supply a torque of F L newton-meters. More technically, torque is the vector cross product of force times perpendicular distance from the object, F x r = F r sin @

Owen and Dina are at rest in frame S' , which is moving at 0.600 c with respect to frame S . They play a game of catch while Ed

The speed of the ball with respect to Dina is 0.800c.

A frame of reference is a set of reference points—geometric points whose positions are known mathematically and physically—that define the origin, orientation, and scale of an abstract coordinate system.

If a body does not continuously adjust its position in relation to its environment throughout the course of time, it is said to be at rest.

In frame S', Dina and Owen are at rest.

The speed of the ball with respect to Owen, u =0.800c

The speed of the fram S' with respect to frame S, v = 0.600c

Distance between Dina and Owen, L(p) = 1.8 × 10¹² m

Speed of light, c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball according to Dina is 0.800c. As Dina and Owen are in the same frame.
