Answer:

The mass, m, of the load = 11.3 Kg

Explanation:

Young's Modulus = Stress / Strain

<em>Stress = Force / Area </em>

Force = mass,m * acceleration due to gravity,g  

assuming g = 10ms⁻²

therefore, Force = 10m

m is mass of the load in kilograms

Area of steel wire = π * r^2, where π= 3.14, r = 1.2/2 = 0.6mm or 6.0 * 10^-4m

= 3.14 * (6.0 * 10⁻⁴m)^2 = 1.13*10⁻⁶m²

<em>Stress = </em>10m / 1.13*10⁻⁶m²

<em> Strain = extension / original length</em>

= (new length - original length)/original length

= (3.2016 - 3.2000)/3.2000

Strain = 0.0005

Using Young's Modulus = Stress / Strain

Note: 1Pa = 1N/m² ; Young's modulus for steel is 2.0 × 10¹¹ Pa or N/m²

2.0*10¹¹ N/m²= Stress / Strain

2.0*10¹¹ = (10m / 1.13*10⁻⁶) / 0.0005

0.0005 * 2.0*10¹¹  = 10m/1.13*10⁻⁶

10m  = 1.13*10⁻⁶ * 0.0005*2*10¹¹

10m  = 113

m = 11.3 kg

Therefore, the mass, m, of the load = 11.3 Kg

A river is flowing south at a rate of 3 m/s. Steven can roe directly across the river if he aims the raft 30 degrees. What rate
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Steven has to row at a speed to reach the same horizontal spot at the other side of the river is, V = 6 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The river flowing south at the rate, v = 3 m/s

To reach the other side directly across the river, he aims the raft, Ф = 30°

The speed of his raft across the river is given by the formula,

                                          V = v / Sin Ф

                                             = 3 / Sin 30°

                                              = 6 m/s

Steven has to row at a speed to reach the same horizontal spot at the other side of the river is, V = 6 m/s
