A cable is 100-m long and has a cross-sectional area of 1.0 mm2. A 1000-N force is applied to stretch the cable. Young's modulus
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

1 m

Explanation:

L = 100 m

A = 1 mm^2 = 1 x 10^-6 m^2

Y = 1 x 10^11 N/m^2

F = 1000 N

Let the cable stretch be ΔL.

By the formula of Young's modulus

Y=\frac{F\times L}{A\times\Delta L}

\Delta L=\frac{F\times L}{A\times\Y}

\Delta L=\frac{1000\times 100}{10^{-6}\times10^{11}}

ΔL = 1 m

Thus, the cable stretches by 1 m.

A shell is fired at an angle of 35° above the horizontal at a velocity of 40 m/s. (a) What is it's speed at the highest point of
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Part a)

v_f = v_x = 32.77 m/s

Part b)

T = 4.68 s

Explanation:

Part a)

Shell is fired at speed of 40 m/s at angle of 35 degree

so here we have

v_x = 40 cos35 = 32.77 m/s

v_y = 40 sin35 = 22.94 m/s

since gravity act opposite to vertical speed of the shell so at the highest point of its trajectory the vertical component of the speed will become zero

so at the highest point the speed is given

v_f = 32.77 m/s

Part b)

After completing the motion we know that the displacement of the object will be zero in Y direction

so we have

\Delta y = 0

0 = v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

T = \frac{2v_y}{g}

T = \frac{2(22.94)}{9.81} = 4.68 s

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre wi
mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.
