You hang a heavy ball with a mass of 10 kg from a gold wire 2.6 m long that is 1.6 mm in diameter. You measure the stretch of th

e wire, and find that the wire stretched 1.99 mm. Calculate Young’s modulus for the wire. [Use g = 9.81 m/s2]

<u>Answer:</u> The Young's modulus for the wire is 6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Young's Modulus is defined as the ratio of stress acting on a substance to the amount of strain produced.

The equation representing Young's Modulus is:

Y=\frac{F/A}{\Delta l/l}=\frac{Fl}{A\Delta l}

where,

Y = Young's Modulus

F = force exerted by the weight  = m\times g

m = mass of the ball = 10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s^2

l = length of wire  = 2.6 m

A = area of cross section  = \pi r^2

r = radius of the wire = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.6mm}{2}=0.8mm=8\times 10^{-4}m      (Conversion factor:  1 m = 1000 mm)

\Delta l = change in length  = 1.99 mm = 1.99\times 10^{-3}m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Y=\frac{10\times 9.81\times 2.6}{(3.14\times (8\times 10^{-4})^2)\times 1.99\times 10^{-3}}\\\\Y=6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2

Hence, the Young's modulus for the wire is 6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2

1. A 1,000-kg car has 50,000 joules of kinetic energy. What is its speed?
bulgar [2K]
Use KE= 1/2mv^2
So... 
50,000=(.5)(1,000)v^2
50,000=500 x v^2
Divide 500 on both sides 
100 = v^2 
Square root both sides to get rid of v^2 
Therefore v = 10 m/s

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

58.44 C

Explanation:

Electric field is found by

E=\frac {\sigma}{\epsilon_o}=\frac {Q}{A\epsilon_o}

Therefore, the charge is

Q=EA\epsilon_o&#10;

Q= 4.00 ✕ 10^{6} N/C*1.65 *10^{6} m^{2}*8.854*10^{-12}= 58.4364 C&#10;

Therefore, required charge is 58.44 C
