Prolonged exposure to significant levels of microwaves is known to cause "cataracts" in your eyes, which is a clouding of the lens preventing you from seeing clearly. People who work on aircraft carrier decks wear special suits which reflect microwaves, to avoid being "cooked" by the powerful radar units in modern military planes. But that's to guard against powerful radar - not mobile phones or wifi. <span>Some research in the past has indicated that the small doses of microwaves from mobile phones might affect parts of your brain - after all, you're holding the transmitter right by your head. Other research is inconclusive, although there is a feeling that you're more vulnerable if you're young and your brain is still growing.

Hope this answer helps! feel free to ask any additional questions :)</span>

How large a force is necessary to stretch a 4.0-mm-diameter steel wire from its original length by 1.0%?

jekas [21]

The force needed to stretch the steel wire by 1% is 25,140 N.

The given parameters include;

diameter of the steel, d = 4 mm

the radius of the wire, r = 2mm = 0.002 m

original length of the wire, L₁

final length of the wire, L₂ = 1.01 x L₁ (increase of 1% = 101%)

extension of the wire e = L₂ - L₁ = 1.01L₁ - L₁ = 0.01L₁

the Youngs modulus of steel, E = 200 Gpa

The area of the steel wire is calculated as follows;

$A = \pi r^2\\\\ A= 3.142 \times (0.002)^2\\\\ A= 1.257 \times 10^{-5} \ m^2$

The force needed to stretch the wire is calculated from Youngs modulus of elasticity given as;

$E = \frac{stress}{strain} = \frac{F/A}{e/L} = \frac{FL}{Ae} \\\\F = \frac{EAe}{L}$

$F = \frac{200 \times 10^9\ \times\ 1.257\times 10^{-5}\ \times \ 0.01l_1}{l_1} \\\\F = 25,140\ N$

Thus, the force needed to stretch the steel wire by 1% is 25,140 N.

A 5.00 kilogram mass is traveling at 100. meters per second. Determine the speed of the mass after an impulse with a magnitude o

faltersainse [42]

m = mass = 5 kg

$v_{i}$ = initial velocity = 100 m/s

$v_{f}$ = final velocity = ?

I = impulse = 30 Ns

Using the impulse-change in momentum equation

I = m( $v_{f}$ - $v_{i}$ )

30 = 5 ( $v_{f}$ - 100)

$v_{f}$ = 106 m/s

How can water boil without heat?

kaheart [24]

Answer:

Put water at room temperature into a vacuum chamber and begin removing the air. Eventually, the boiling temperature will fall below the water temperature and boiling will begin without heating. Or if you want to be easy but messy, add dry ice to a bowl of water and watch how the water starts to boil.
