Answer:

y - 3 = 5(x - (-1))

y - 3 = 5(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1). So plug in the coordinates (-1, 3) for y1 and x1. It should look like this, y - 3 = m(x - (-1)). Or it could also look like this, y - 3 = m(x + 1), because a negative - a negative equals a positive. Then you need to plug in the m (slope), which is 5.

A man weighing 800 N is hanging from a 2 mm diameter titanium wire with a cross-section of 3 x 10^-6 m^2. Will the wire break?

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Since stress is greater than ultimate strength, the wire will break.

Step-by-step explanation:

The titanium wire is experimenting an axial load. Ultimate strength equals $2.20\times 10^{8}\,Pa$ . The wire shall break if and only if stress is at least equal to ultimate strength. The equation for axial stress ( $\sigma$ ), measured in pascals, in the wire with circular cross-section is:
