True or False: The northern & southern lights are caused by solar wind particles interacting with gases in our atmosphere.
NARA [144]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

An aurora is a natural electric phenomenon that creates bright and colorful light displays in the sky. These dramatic and colorful lights are created when electrically charged particles from solar winds enter the Earth's atmosphere and interact with gases in the atmosphere.

For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 294 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 121 GPa. (a) What
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

a) load in Newton is 96,138 b) 129.314mm

Explanation:

Stress = force/ area (cross sectional area of the bronze)

Force(load) = 294*10^6*327*10^-6 = 96138N

b) modulus e = stress/ strain

Strain = stress/ e = (294*10^6)/ (121*10^ 9) = 2.34* 10^ -3

Strain = change in length/ original length = DL/ 129

Change in length DL = 129 * 2.34*10^ -3 = 0.31347

Maximum length = change in length + original length = 129.314mm

A cylinder of diameter 100 mm rolls from restdown a 5 m long ramp and its center of mass is moving with velocity 2 m/s at the bo
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

(a): a = 0.4m/s²

(b): α = 8 radians/s²

Explanation:

First we propose an equation to determine the linear acceleration and an equation to determine the space traveled in the ramp (5m):

a= (Vf-Vi)/t = (2m/s)/t

a: linear acceleration.

Vf: speed at the end of the ramp.

Vi: speed at the beginning of the ramp (zero).

d= (1/2)×a×t² = 5m

d: distance of the ramp (5m).

We replace the first equation in the second to determine the travel time on the ramp:

d = 5m = (1/2)×( (2m/s)/t)×t² = (1m/s)×t ⇒ t = 5s

And the linear acceleration will be:

a = (2m/s)/5s = 0.4m/s²

Now we determine the perimeter of the cylinder to know the linear distance traveled on the ramp in a revolution:

perimeter = π×diameter = π×0.1m = 0.3142m

To determine the angular acceleration we divide the linear acceleration by the radius of the cylinder:

α = (0.4m/s²)/(0.05m) = 8 radians/s²

α: angular aceleration.
