A 4.0-kg object is supported by an aluminum wire of length 2.0 m and diameter 2.0 mm. How much will the wire stretch?
forsale [732]

Answer:

The extension of the wire is 0.362 mm.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 4.0 kg

length of the aluminum wire, L = 2.0 m

diameter of the wire, d = 2.0 mm

radius of the wire, r = d/2 = 1.0 mm = 0.001 m

The area of the wire is given by;

A = πr²

A = π(0.001)² = 3.142 x 10⁻⁶ m²

The downward force of the object on the wire is given by;

F = mg

F = 4 x 9.8 = 39.2 N

The Young's modulus of aluminum is given by;

Y = \frac{stress}{strain}\\\\Y = \frac{F/A}{e/L}\\\\Y = \frac{FL}{Ae} \\\\e = \frac{FL}{AY}

Where;

Young's modulus of elasticity of aluminum = 69 x 10⁹ N/m²

e = \frac{FL}{AY} \\\\e = \frac{(39.2)(2)}{(3.142*10^{-6})(69*10^9)} \\\\e = 0.000362 \ m\\\\e = 0.362 \ mm

Therefore, the extension of the wire is 0.362 mm.

Compare and contrast electric motors and generators.
Marrrta [24]
Electric motors require electricity to move the motor parts and do work (like an electric fan).

Elecgric generators actually burn diesel fuel to spin a motor around and around and around to GENERATE, or MAKE, electricity that you can then use to power your fans and lights in your house.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of gravity is 9.8m/s^2.

So to calculate the time it will take to make the ball stop(which btw means the ball now reach its greatest height), use the formula V1=V0+at. V1 is the final velocity(which is 0), V0 is the starting velocity(which is 30m/s), and the a(cceleration) is 9.8m/s^2.

(You can ignore the fact "at" is -30 instead 30, it's because the directions two velocity travel are opposite. )

We can now know the time it takes to make the ball stop just by the gravitational force is about 3 sec.

Use another formula S=1/2at^2, to find out the S(height) is 1/2*9.8*3^2=44.1, which is approximately D.45m .

Can someone help me please??
Mrrafil [7]

1. Our solar system is the only place in the universe where gravity played a key part in the formation of planets.

2. Rocky planets are small, dense, and orbit relatively close to the sun, compared to the Jovian planets, which are large, less dense, and orbiting far from the sun.

3. _______

Geologists know the past temperature of the planet based on rock and fossil evidence. Why do you think it is difficult to determ
Basile [38]

Answer:

I think it is difficult to determine what has caused climate change in the distant past because it must have been a long time ago so geologists can't carry out different experiments and figure out what gases the planet had conjured, so geologists can only make predictions based off the evidence they currently have from what the planet looked like before. The planet must have changed over the years, therefore the climate has also changed in the future, so they cannot work with how the planet looked in the past.
