A lift is used to lower miners 5500m into a mine. The lift is supported by a cable made of many high strength steel strands of 6

mm diameter each and was designed with a factor of safety of 2.00; the ultimate stress for steel strands is 1300 MPa and the allowable stress is 650 MPa. The empty lift weighs 16 kN and has a capacity of 20 persons. Assume that the density of steel is 77 kN/m^3 and average weight of one person is 850N.
a) Calculate the number of strands required to support the lift.
b) What is the max depth to which the lift can be lowered before the cable snaps?

Downward force of magnitude 5 N isexerted on the book by the force ofthetablegravityinertia .
mylen [45]

Downward force of magnitude 5 N is exerted on the book by the force of <em>gravity</em>.  We call that the "weight" of the book.

At the same time, upward force of 5 N is exerted on the book by the table.  This one is called the "normal force".

Since the vertical forces on the book are 'balanced' (add up to zero), the book just lays there on the table, and does not accelerate.

If two balls have the same volume,
Lena [83]

Here, we are required to find the relationship between balls of different mass(a measure of weight) and different volumes.

  • 1. Ball A will have the greater density
  • 2. Ball C and Ball D have the same density.
  • 3. Ball Q will have the greater density.
  • 4. Ball X and Y will have the same density

The density of an object is given as its mass per unit volume of the object.

Mathematically;.

  • Density = Mass/Volume.

For Case 1:

  • Va = Vb and Ma = 2Mb
  • D(b) = (Mb)/(Vb) and D(a) = 2(Mb)/Vb
  • Therefore, the density of ball A,
  • D(a) = 2D(b).
  • Therefore, ball A has the greater density.

For Case 2:

  • Vc = 3Vd,

  • Vd = (1/3)Vc

  • Md = (1/3)Mc

  • D(c) = (Mc)/(Vc) and D(d) = (1/3)Md/(1/3)Vd

  • D(c) = D(d).

  • Therefore, ball C and D have the same density

For Case 3:

  • Vp = 2Vq and Mp = Mq
  • D(p) = (Mq)/2(Vq) and D(q) = (Mq)/Vq
  • Therefore, the density of ball P is half the density of ball Q
  • Therefore, ball Q has the greater density.

For case 4:

  • Mx = (1/2)My
  • Vx = Vy

Therefore, Ball X and Ball Y have the same density.
