Explanation:
For a linear elastic material Young's modulus is a constant that is given by:
Here, F is the force exerted on an object under tensio, A is the area of the cross-section perpendicular to the applied force, is the amount by which the length of the object changes and
is the original length of the object. In this case the force is the weight of the mass:
Replacing the given values in Young's modulus formula:
Answer:
Explanation:
The horizontal distance covered by the ball in the falling is only determined by its horizontal motion - in fact, it is given by
where
is the horizontal velocity
t is the time of flight
The time of flight, instead, is only determined by the vertical motion of the ball: however, in this problem the vertical velocity is not changed (it is zero in both cases), so the time of flight remains the same.
In the first situation, the horizontal distance covered is
in the second case, the horizontal velocity is increased to
And so the new distance travelled will be
So, the distance increases linearly with the horizontal velocity.
