Answer:

Weight required = 194.51 N

Explanation:

The elongation is given by

            \Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}

Length , L= 1.6 m

Diameter, d = 1.1 mm

Area

   A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}=\frac{\pi \times (1.1\times 10^{-3})^2}{4}=9.50\times 10^{-7}m^2

Change in length, ΔL = 2.8 mm = 0.0028 m

Young's modulus of copper, E = 117 GPa = 117 x 10⁹ Pa

Substituting,

      \Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}\\\\0.0028=\frac{P\times 1.6}{9.50\times 10^{-7}\times 117\times 10^9}\\\\P=194.51N

Weight required = 194.51 N

NeX [460]

Answer:

(a). The average speed is 51.83 m/s.

(b). The average velocity over one revolution is zero.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular velocity = 110 rev/m

Radius = 4.50 m

(a). We need to calculate the average speed

Using formula of average speed

v=r\omega

v = 4.50\times110\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}

v=51.83\ m/s

(b). The average velocity over one revolution is zero because the net displacement is zero in one revolution.

Hence, (a). The average speed is 51.83 m/s.

(b). The average velocity over one revolution is zero.

What is 0.0025 m^2 in cm^2? 1m = 100cm.
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

25 cm²

Explanation:

Meters and centimeters are both the units for measuring length. The SI unit of measuring length is meters.

Area is the quantity which measures the cross-section occupied by the object.

Thus,

Given that = Area = 0.0025 m²

To convert into cm²

1 m = 100 cm

So, 1 m² = 10000 cm²

So,

<u>Area = 0.0025 × 10000 cm² = 25 cm²</u>

What is the formula for instant velocity when I have time and distance?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

v(t)= (d/dt)x(t)

Explanation:

The instantaneous velocity of an object is the limit of the average velocity as the elapsed time approaches zero, or the derivative of x with respect to t. Like average velocity, instantaneous velocity is a vector with dimension of length per time. The instantaneous velocity at a specific time point  t 0  is the rate of change of the position function, which is the slope of the position function  

x ( t ) at  t 0 .
