When subjected to a force of compression, the length of a bone (compression Young's modulus 9.4 x 109 N/m2, tensile Young's modu

lus 1.6 x 1010 N/m2) decreases by 3.7 x 10-5 m. When this same bone is subjected to a tensile force of the same magnitude, by how much does it stretch?

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the definition of Young's Module which states that

Y_1 = \frac{\frac{F}{A}}{\frac{\Delta l_0}{l}}

Where,

F = Force

A = Cross sectional Area

L = Length

L_0 = Initial Length

We need to find the ratio between the two values when the another values are constant, that is

\frac{Y_1}{Y_2} = \frac{\frac{\frac{F}{A}}{\frac{\Delta l_1}{l}}}{\frac{\frac{F}{A}}{\frac{\Delta l_2}{l}}}

\frac{Y_1}{Y_2} = \frac{\Delta l_2}{\Delta l_1}

Re-arrange to find \Delta l_2,

\Delta l_2 = \frac{9.4*10^9}{1.6*10^{10}}*3.7*10^{-5}

\Delta l_2 = 2.17*10^{-5} m

Therefore the bone stretch around 2.17*10^{-5} m

What are three ways to speed up a<br> reaction?
Ksju [112]

Explanation:

Increase the temperature in Endothermic reactions (Reactions that absorb energy, or become cold) Decrease the temperature in Exothermic reactions (Reactions that release energy, or become hot) Add a catalyst (A substance that reduces activation energy, speeding up the reaction) Increase the concentration of reactants.

A test charge of -1.4 x 10-7 coulombs experiences a force of 5.4 x 10-1 newtons. Calculate the magnitude of the electric field c
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

3.86×10⁶ Newton/coulombs

Explaination:

Applying,

E = F/q....................... Equation 1

Where E = Electric Field, F  = Force, q = charge.

From the question,

Given: F = 5.4×10⁻¹ N, q = -1.4×10⁻⁷ coulombs

Substitute these values into equation 1

E = 5.4×10⁻¹/ -1.4×10⁻⁷

E = -3.86×10⁶ Newtons/coulombs

Hence the magnitude of the electric field created by the

negative test charge is 3.86×10⁶ Newton/coulombs

Before the student releases the cart by cutting the tinsel string, what forces are acting on the cart?
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: TENSION and WEIGHT

Explanation:

Force experienced by the spring is called TENSION while the WEIGHT is the gravitational pull on the body towards the earth surface. Therefore the forces acting on the cart are TENSION and WEIGHT(weight acts downwards (along negative y-axis) while the TENSION upward(along positive y-axis).
