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]

Charge q is accelerated starting from rest up to speed v through the potential difference V. What speed will charge q have after
adoni [48]

Answer: v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s

Explanation: q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609 * 10^{-19} c

mass of an electronic charge = 9.10 * 10^{-31} kg

V= potential difference = 4V

v = velocity of electron

by using the work- energy theorem which states that the kinetic energy of the the electron must equal the work done use in accelerating the electron.

kinetic energy = \frac{mv^{2} }{2},  potential energy = qV

hence, \frac{mv^{2} }{2} = qV

\frac{9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2}  }{2} = 1.609 * 10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\\\9.10*10^{-31}  * v^{2} = 2 * 1.609 *10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} = 1.287 *10^{-15} \\\\v^{2} = \frac{1.287 *10^{-15} }{9.10 *10^{31} } \\\\v^{2} = 1.414*10^{15} \\\\v = \sqrt{1.414*10^{15} } \\\\v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s

What can be concluded about the atom from knowing that oxygen-18 has an atomic number of 8? A) An oxygen atom that includes 8 ba
anyanavicka [17]
B)

If it is known that the atomic number is 8, we know that the electrons are also 8. Since the atomic mass (O18) is 18, the neutrons are 18-8=10. Option B is the correct answer. 

Hope I helped :)

A rigid tank internal energy of fluid 800kJ. Fluid loses 500kJ of heat and padle wheel does 100kJ of work. Find final internal e
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

 U₂ = 400 KJ      

Explanation:

Given that

Initial energy of the tank ,U₁= 800 KJ

Heat loses by fluid ,Q= - 500 KJ

Work done on the fluid ,W= - 100 KJ

Sign -

1.Heat rejected by system - negative

2.Heat gain by system - Positive

3.Work done by system = Positive

4.Work done on the system-Negative

Lets take final internal energy =U₂

We know that

Q= U₂ - U₁ + W

-500 = U₂ - 800 - 100

U₂ = -500 +900 KJ

U₂ = 400 KJ

Therefore the final internal energy = 400 KJ

The space shuttle is accelerated off its launch pad to a velocity of 525 m/s in 18.0 seconds.
Eva8 [605]

Answer: 29.17m/s^2

Explanation:

Given the following :

Velocity = 525 m/s

Time = 18 seconds

Acceleration = change in Velocity with time

Using the motion equation:

v = u + at

Where v = final Velocity

u = Initial Velocity and t = time

Plugging our values

525 = 0 + a × 18

525 = 18(a)

a = 525 / 18

a = 29.166666

a = 29.17 m/s^2
