Answer:

DL = 1.5*10^-4[m]

Explanation:

First we will determine the initial values of the problem, in this way we have:

F = 60000[N]

L = 4 [m]

A = 0.008 [m^2]

DL = distance of the beam compressed along its length [m]

With the following equation we can find DL

\frac{F}{A} = Y*\frac{DL}{L} \\where:\\Y = young's modulus = 2*10^{11} [Pa]\\DL=\frac{F*L}{Y*A} \\DL=\frac{60000*4}{2*10^{11} *0.008} \\DL= 1.5*10^{-4} [m]

Note: The question should be related with the distance, not with the diameter, since the diameter can be found very easily using the equation for a circular area.

A=\frac{\pi}{4} *D^{2} \\D = \sqrt{\frac{A*4}{\pi} } \\D =  \sqrt{\frac{0.008*4}{\\pi } \\\\D = 0.1[m]

Cell phone conversations are transmitted by high-frequency radio waves. Suppose the signal has wavelength 36.5 cm while travelin
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula  v=fλ

Where v= velocity of radio waves

f= frequency

λ= wavelength of wave

  • radio waves are electromagnetic waves and as such they have the speed of light which is 3*10^{8}m/s.
  • also when a wave travels from one medium to another, the wavelength changes while the frequency remains the same.
  • calculating for the frequency of the wave in air also gives us the frequency in the window glass.

f=\frac{v}{λ}

v=3*10^{8}m/s.

λ=36.5 cm = 36.5/100= 0.365m

f=\frac{3*10^{8}m/s.}{0.365m}

f=8.219*10^{8}Hz

Most towns use a water tower to store water and provide pressure in the pipes that deliver water to customers. The figure below
MatroZZZ [7]

The effective height of the water for Smith's house will be 24.61m.

<h3>How to calculate the height?</h3>

Based on the information given, the volume of the water in sphere will be:

= 4/3πr³ = (5.80 × 10^5)/1000

= 4.18r³ = 580

r³ = 138.7

r = 5.18m

The effective height of the water will be:

= 18.0 + 2(5.18)

= 28.36

The gauge pressure at Faucet of Jones house will be:

= pgh

= 1000(9.8)(28.36)

= 277.9kPa

The effective height of the water for Smith's house will be:

= 18.0 + 2(5.18) - 3.75

= 24.61m

The gauge pressure at Faucet of Jones house will be:

= 1000 × 9.8 × 24.61

= 241.2kPa

The drill used by most dentists today is powered by a small air-turbine that can operate at angular speeds of 350000 rpm. These
alexdok [17]

Answer:

θ  = 6.3 *10³ revolutions

Explanation:

Angular acceleration of the drill

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated

ωf= ω₀ + α*t  Formula (1)

Where:  

α : Angular acceleration (rad/s²)  

ω₀ : Initial angular speed ( rad/s)  

ωf : Final angular speed ( rad

t :  time interval (s)

Data

ω₀ = 0

ωf = 350000 rpm = 350000 rev/min

1 rev = 2π rad

1 min= 60 s

ωf = 350000 rev/min =350000*(2π rad/60 s)

ωf = 36651.9 rad/s

t = 2.2 s

We replace data in the formula (2) :

ωf= ω₀ + α*t

36651.9 = 0 + α* (2.2)

α = 36651.9 / (2.2)

α = 17000 rad/s²

Revolutions made by the drill

We apply the equations of circular motion uniformly accelerated

ωf²= ω₀ ²+ 2α*θ Formula (2)

Where:  

θ : Angle that the body has rotated in a given time interval (rad)

We replace data in the formula (2):  

(ωf)²= ω₀²+ 2α*θ

(36651.9)²= (0)²+ 2( 17000 )*θ

θ = (36651.9)²/ (34000 )

θ  = 39510.64 rad = 39510.64 rad* (1 rev/2πrad)

θ  = 6288.31 revolutions

θ  = 6.3 *10³ revolutions

Guys help me with this question.​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Brownian motion is a random (irregular) motion of particles e.g smoke particle. The set up in the diagram can be used to observe the motion of smoke.

1. The apparatus used are:

A is a source of light

B is a converging lens

C is a glass smoke cell

D is a microscope

2. The uses of the apparatus are:

A - produces the light required to so as to see clearly the movement of the particles.

B - converges the rays of light from the source to the smoke cell.

C - is made of glass and used for encamping the smoke particles so as not to mix with air.

D - is used for the clear view or observation or study of the motion of the smoke particles in the cell.

If a small sports car collides head-on with a massive truck, which vehicle experiences the greater impact force? Which vehicle e
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Small sports car.

Explanation:

Lets take

mass of the small car = m

mass of the truck = M

As we know that when car collide with the massive truck then due to change in the moment of the car both car as well as truck will feel force.We also know that from Third law of Newton's ,it states that every action have it reaction with same magnitude but in the opposite direction.

Therefore

F = m a

a=Acceleration of the car

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

F= M a'

a'=Acceleration of the massive truck

a'=\dfrac{F}{M}

Here given that M > m that is why a > a'

Therefore car will experiences more acceleration.
