A square steel bar has a length of 9.7 ft and a 2.9 in by 2.9 in cross section and is subjected to axial tension. The final leng

th is 9.70710 ft . The final side length is 2.89933 in . What is Poisson's ratio for the material? Express your answer to three significant figures.

The Poisson's ratio definition is given as the change in lateral deformation over longitudinal deformation. Mathematically it could be expressed like this,

$\upsilon = \frac{\text{Lateral Strain}}{\text{Longitudinal Strain}}$

$\upsilon = \frac{(\delta a/a)}{(\delta l/l)}$

Replacing with our values we would have to,

$\upsilon = \frac{(2.89933-2.9/2.9)}{(9.70710-9.7/97)}$

$\upsilon = 0.1977$

Therefore Poisson's ratio is 0.1977.

A bicycle is traveling north at 5.0 m/s. The mass of the wheel, 2.0 kg, is uniformly distributed along the rim, which has a radi

andreev551 [17]

Answer:2

Explanation:

Given

Velocity of bicycle is 5 m/s towards north

radius of rim $r=20 cm$

mass of rim $m=2 kg$

Angular momentum $\vec{L}=I\cdot \vec{\omega }$

$I=mr^2=2\times 0.2^2=0.08 kg-m^2$

$\omega =\frac{v}{r}=\frac{5}{0.2}=25 rad/s$

$L=0.08\times 25=2kg-m^2/s$

direction of Angular momentum will be towards west

What is the net force acting on an object?

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

If two forces act on an object in the same direction, the net force is the sum of the two forces. In this case, the net force is always greater than either of the individual forces.

Find the momentum of a 500,000 kg train that is stopped on the tracks?

Aneli [31]

Answer:

The answer should be A) 0m/s

Explanation:

It is stopped on the train tracks therefore it is not moving.

Please tell me if I am wrong because I'm not 100% sure on this. Hope it's right and that it helped you.

A charged capacitor is connected to an ideal inductor. At time t = 0, the charge on the capacitor is equal to 6.00 μC. At time t

Len [333]

Answer:

$4.71\times 10^{-3}A$

Explanation:

$Q_{max}$ = Maximum charge stored by capacitor = 6 μC = 6 x 10⁻⁶ C

$t$ = time taken for charge on the capacitor to become zero = 2 ms = 2 x 10⁻³ s

Time period is given as

$T = 4t$

$T = 4(2\times 10^{-3})$

$T = 8\times 10^{-3} s$

Angular frequency is given as

$w = \frac{2\pi }{T}$

$w = \frac{2(3.14) }{8\times 10^{-3}}$

$w$ =785 rad/s

Charge at any time is given as

$Q(t) = Q_{max}Coswt$

Taking derivative both side relative to "t"

$\frac{\mathrm{d}Q(t) }{\mathrm{d} t} = \frac{\mathrm{d}(Q_{max}Coswt) }{\mathrm{d} t}$

$i(t)= -Q_{max} w Sinwt$

Amplitude of the current is given as

$i_{max}= Q_{max} w$

$i_{max}= (6\times 10^{-6}) (785)$

$i_{max}= 4.71\times 10^{-3}A$
