Answer:

D. 803 lbs

Explanation:

In order to find the compressive stress on all three blocks we first need to find the normal surface area of each:

Surface Area of 1 Block = 3.5 x 3.5

Surface Area of 1 Block = 12.25

Surface Area of all 3 Blocks = A = 3 x 12.25

Area = 36.75

Now, the stress is given by the following formula:

Stress = Force/Area

Stress = 29500 lbs/36.75

Stress = 802.72 lbs

Hence, the correct option will be:

<u>D. 803 lbs</u>

a crane lifts a 35000 N steel girder a distance of 25 m in 45 s. How much power did the crane require to lift the girder
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Hello.

The formula for Power is Work divided by Time; however, we do not have our value for Work - yet.
To find for the Work inputted, we need to use its formula: Force * Distance.

Let's multiply our Force by our Distance. Remember that our Force is always  measured in Newtons (N), and our Distance is measured by Meters (M).
35,000 * 25 = 875,000 J (Unit for Work is "J" or "Joules")

Now that we have the value for Work, let's apply it to our Power formula.
P = 875,000 / 45; 19,444.44~

The Power required to lift the girder is 1944.44~ W (Unit for Power is "W" or "Watts").

I hope this helps!
