A 1000-n weight is hanging from a 2.0 m long aluminum rod. A 500-n weight is hanging from a 1.0 m long aluminum rod. The two alu

minum rods have different cross sectional areas. Which rod is under the greater tensile stress?

Answer:

Both rod have the same tensile stress

Explanation:

Given information,

The weight first rod, W_{1} = 1000 N

The length of first rod, l_{1} = 2.0 m

The weight second rod, W_{2} = 500 N

The length of second rod, l_{2 = 1.0 m

The equation of tensile stress, σ = \frac{F}{A}

where

σ = tensile stress (N/m^{2} or Pa)

F = Force (N)

A = Area (N/m^{2} or Pa)

so

σ1 =  \frac{W_{1} }{A_{1} }, A = 2πl

    = \frac{1000}{2\pi(2) }

    = \frac{250}{\pi } N/m^{2}

now calculate σ2

σ2 =  \frac{W_{2} }{A_{2} }

     = \frac{500}{2\pi(1) }

     = \frac{250}{\pi } N/m^{2}

σ1/σ2 = \frac{250}{\pi } / \frac{250}{\pi }

σ1/σ2 = 1

σ1 = σ2

Hence, the tensile stress of first and second rod are the same.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Explanation:

(a) The rays are diverging near the lens. They change the direction when they passed through the converging lens

(b) If the light rays don't bend they will move away from the optical (principal axis) as the other waves are moving.

(c) If we decrease the distance between lens and light source, most of the rays diverge and no ray converges on the screen even after passing through the lens. Here is a screenshot.
