The average coefficient of linear expansion of copper is 1.7 10-5 (°c)−1. the statue of liberty is 93 m tall on a summer morning

when the temperature is 25°c. assume the copper plates covering the statue are mounted edge to edge without expansion joints and do not buckle or bind on the framework supporting them as the day grows hot. what is the order of magnitude of the statue's increase in height?

Answer:

\Delta L \approx 0.024\,m

Explanation:

The average coefficient of linear expansion observes the following approximation:

\bar \alpha \approx \frac{1}{L}\cdot \frac{\Delta L}{\Delta T}

Maximum temperature in New York during summer can reach up to 40 °C. The increase in height is:

\Delta L \approx \alpha \cdot L \cdot \Delta T

\Delta L \approx \left(1.7\times 10^{-5}\,\frac{1}{^{\textdegree}C}  \right)\cdot (93\,m)\cdot (40\,^{\textdegree}C-25\,^{\textdegree}C)

\Delta L \approx 0.024\,m

Let the rise in temperature be 5^0C

The expansion in length due to change in temperature is given by the expression lαΔt , where l is the length, α is the  coefficient of linear expansion, Δt is the change in temperature.

Here l = 93 m, α = 1.7*10^{-5}  ^0C^{-1}, and Δt = 5^0C

So expansion in length = 93*1.7*10^{-5}*5 = 0.007905 m = 0.79*10^{-3}m

So order of magnitude in change in length = -3

We need to find the launch velocity of our new marble launcher. we know that it will launch a 25g marble to a distance of 73 cm,
White raven [17]

The launch velocity of the marble launcher is 34.65 m/s

Given that the launch velocity of marble launcher, launches a 25g marble to a distance of 73 cm (0.73 m) and the marble roll up to 6.2 meters before stopping. The launch height is 20 cm (0.2 m).

The time for landing can be calculated by the second equation of motion formula:

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Let u = 0

0.2 = 0×t + \frac{1}{2} × 9.8 × t^{2}

t^{2} = \frac{0.2}{4.9}

t^{2} = 0.04

t = 0.2s

Now, the launch velocity of the marble launcher can be calculated by:

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = \frac{0.73 + 6.3}{0.2}

Speed = \frac{6.93}{0.2}

Speed = 34.65 m/s

Therefore, the launch velocity of the marble launcher is 34.65 m/s

If a flea can jump straight up to a height of 0.410 m , what is its initial speed as it leaves the ground?
aivan3 [116]

Initial velocity = \(v_0\)

acceleration in the downward direction = -9.8 \(\frac {m}{s^2}\)

Final velocity at the highest point = 0

Maximum height reached = 0.410 m

Now, Using third equation of motion:

\(v^2 = {v_0}^{2} + 2aH

\(0^2 = {v_0}^{2} - 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410

\({v_0}^{2} = 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410\)

\(v_0 = 2.834 \frac {m}{s}\)

Speed with which the flea jumps = \(2.834 \frac {m}{s}\)
