Determine the diameter of the largest circular hole that can be punched into a sheet of polystyrene 6 mm thick, knowing that the

force exerted by the punch is 45 kN and that a 55-MPa average shearing stress is required to cause the material to fail.

Answer:

43.41 mm

Explanation:

Given:

thickness of sheet, t = 6 mm

Force exerted by punch, F = 45 KN

Average shearing stress, T = 55 MPa

From average shearing stress T = Force F / Area A

Hence area = force/stress =45000/ 55 = $818.18 mm^2$

From area = pi*diameter*thickness

diameter = area/(pi* thickness)

= 818.18/(3.142*6)

= 43.41 mm

Which statement about thin lenses is correct? In each case, we are considering only a single lens. A. A diverging lens always pr

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the correct statements,

for this we can use the constructor equation

1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p the distance to the object and q the distance to the image

In diverging lenses, the focal length is negative and the image is virtual and erect

In convergent lenses, the positive focal length, if the object is farther than the focal length, the image is real and inverted, and if the object is at a shorter distance than the focal length, the image is virtual and straight.

With this analysis let's review each statement

A) False. The image is right

B) False. The type of image depends on where the object is with respect to the focal length

C) False. The real image is always inverted

D) False. The image is always virtual

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

A 5.00 kg rock whose density is 4300 kg/m3 is suspended by a string such that half of the rock's volume is under water. You may

12345 [234]

Answer:

The tension on the string is $T = 43.302 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the rock is $m_r = 5.00 \ kg = 5000 \ g$

The density of the rock is $\rho = 4300 \ kg/m^3 = 4.3 g/dm^3$

Generally the volume of the rock is mathematically evaluated as

$V = \frac{m_r}{\rho}$

substituting values

$V = \frac{5000}{4.3}$

$V = 1162.7 \ dm^3$

The volume of the rock immersed in water is

$V_w = \frac{V}{2}$

substituting values

$V_w = \frac{1162.7 }{2}$

$V_w = 581.4 \ dm^3$

mass of water been displaced by the this volume is

$m_w = V_w$ According to Archimedes principle

=> $m_w = 581.4 \ g$

$m_w = 0.5814 \ kg$

The weight of the water displace is

$W _w = m_w * g$

$W _w = 0.5814 * 9.8$

$W _w = 5.698 \ N$

The actual weight of the rock is

$W_r = m_r * g$

$W_r = 5.0 * 9.8$

$W_r = 49.0 \ N$

The tension on the string is

$T = W_r - W_w$

substituting values

$T = 49.0 - 5.698$

$T = 43.302 \ N$
