Answer: B.) HYDROPLANE

Explanation: The term hydroplane can be used to refer to a condition which usually occur during a downpour or on surfaces covered by water. It occurs when water forms a barrier or comes in between the frictional grip which occurs between the road surface and the car tyres. The contact between the car tyres and the road surface is supposed to give adequate frictional support which prevents the car from skidding or skidding uncontrollably on the road surface. However, when water comes invetween the surface, traction is lost and skidding results due to very low Coefficient of friction between the road and Tyre which was supposed to provide a firm grip between the tyres and the road surface.

What is the acceleration of this object? The object's mass is 60 kg.
Licemer1 [7]
First determine the net force. Let's say the downwards force is negative and the upwards force is positive.
Since the forces act in opposite directions, the net force would be:
400N - 600N = -200N

Since I said negative is downwards, this translates to the net force being 200N downwards.

Force = mass*acceleration
200N = 60kg * acceleration
acceleration = 3.33 m/s^2

An 850-lb force is applied to a 0.15-in. diameter nickel wire having a yield strength of 45,000 psi and a tensile strength of 55
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

a)Yes will deform plastically

b) Will NOT experience necking

Explanation:

Given:

- Applied Force F = 850 lb

- Diameter of wire D = 0.15 in

- Yield Strength Y=45,000 psi

- Ultimate Tensile strength U = 55,000 psi

Find:

a) Whether there will be plastic deformation

b) Whether there will be necking.

Solution:

Assuming a constant Force F, the stress in the wire will be:

                       stress = F / Area

                       Area = pi*D^2 / 4

                       Area = pi*0.15^2 / 4 = 0.0176715 in^2

                       stress = 850 / 0.0176715

                       stress = 48,100.16 psi

      Yield Strength < Applied stress > Ultimate Tensile strength

                        45,000 < 48,100 < 55,000

Hence, stress applied is greater than Yield strength beyond which the wire will deform plasticly but insufficient enough to reach UTS responsible for the necking to initiate. Hence, wire deforms plastically but does not experience necking.

An empty 2,500 kg train car is headed northbound at a velocity of 5 m/s. Ahead of the first car, an empty 1,500 kg car is headed
Tema [17]

Let the mass of 2500 kg car be m_1 and it's velocity be v_1 and the mass of 1500 kg car be m_2 and it's velocity be v_2 .

After the bumping the mass be M and it's velocity be V.

     By law of conservation of momentum we have

                   m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = MV

                    2500 * 5 + 1500 * 1=4000 * V

                    V = 14000/4000 = 7/2 = 3.5 m/s

So the velocity of the two-car train = 3.5 m/s
