Calculate the percentage increase in length of a wire of diameter 2.2 mm stretched by a load of
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

0.21%

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 100 kg

Diameter; d = 2.2 mm = 2.2 × 10^(-3) m

Young's modulus; E = 12.5 x 10^(10) N/m².

Formula for area is;

A = πd²/4

A = (π/4) x (2.2 x 10^(-3))²

A = 3.8 x 10^(-6) m²

Force; F = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity and has a constant value of 9.8 m/s²

F = 100 × 9.8

F = 980 N

Formula for young's modulus is;

E = Stress/strain

Formula for stress = F/A

Formula for strain = ΔL/L

Thus;

E = (F/A)/(ΔL/L)

Making ΔL/L the subject, we have;

ΔL/L = (F/A)/E

Plugging in the relevant values;

ΔL/L = 980/(3.8 x 10^(-6) × 12.5 × 10^(10))

ΔL/L = 0.0021

Then percentage increase in length of a wire = 0.0021 × 100% = 0.21%

A 5.0 kg Foucalt Pendulum swings at the end of a 4.0 m long cable. The pendulum is released from a height of 1.5 m above the low
liubo4ka [24]

Hi there!

We can begin by solving for the pendulum's velocity at the bottom of its trajectory using the work-energy theorem.

Recall:
E_i = E_f

Initially, we just have Potential Energy. At the bottom, there is just Kinetic Energy.

PE = KE\\\\

Working equation:
\large\boxed{mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2}

Rearrange to solve for velocity:
gh = \frac{1}{2}v^2\\\\v = \sqrt{2gh}\\\\v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(1.5)} = 5.42 \frac{m}{s}

Now, we can do a summation of forces:
\Sigma F = T - W

The net force is the centripetal force, so:
\frac{mv^2}{r} = T - W

Rearrange to solve for tension:
T = \frac{mv^2}{r} + W\\\\T = \frac{5(5.42^2)}{4} + 5(9.8) = \boxed{85.75 N}
