A rock climber hangs freely from a nylon rope that is 15 m long and has a diameter of 8.3 mm. If the rope stretches 5.1 cm, what

is the mass of the climber? Young's modulus for nylon is Y=0.37Ã10^10N/m^2.

Answer:

Mass of the climber = 69.38 kg

Explanation:

Change in length

        \Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}

Load, P = m x 9.81 = 9.81m

Young's modulus, Y = 0.37 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

Area

       A=\frac{\pi (8.3\times 10^{-3})^2}{4}=5.41\times 10^{-5}m^2

Length, L = 15 m

ΔL = 5.1 cm = 0.051 m

Substituting

       0.051=\frac{9.81m\times 15}{5.41\times 10^{-5}\times 0.37\times 10^{10}}\\\\m=69.38kg  

Mass of the climber = 69.38 kg

The marbles that are 'more energetic' fall out of the tray, in the same way particles have enough energy to escape and turn into a gas.

What is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries?
marysya [2.9K]

"Changing water salinity" is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

For estuaries, alkalinity levels are usually the maximum at a river's mouth where the ocean water falls for, and the minimum upstream where freshwater falls in. Although salinity vary throughout the tidal cycle. In estuaries, salinity rates usually decrease in spring as snow melt and rain raises the freshwater flow from streams and groundwater.

It influences the chemical environments within the estuary, especially the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the water. The level of oxygen that would get dissolved in water or its solubility get declined when the alkalinity rises.
