Can rock undergo compression, tension, and shear stress all at once? explain

1 answer:

7 0

This causes reverse faults, which are the reverse of normal faults, because in this case, the hanging wall slides upward relative to the footwall. Shear stress is when rock slabs slide past each other horizontally. There is no vertical movement of either the hanging wall or footwall, and we get a strike-slip fault.

A team of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on wet snow (mush!). The dogs have average masses of 18.5 kg, and the

meriva

Answer:

a. $2.86 m/s^2$

b.1058 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of each dog,M=18.5 kg

Mass of sled with rider,m=250 kg

a.Average force,F=185 N

$\mu_s=0.14$

$g=9.8 m/s^2$

By Newton's second law

$8F-f=(8M+m)a$

$a=\frac{8F-f}{8M+m}=\frac{8(185)-(0.14)(9.8)(250)}{8(18.5)+250}$

$a=2.86 m/s^2$

b.By Newton's second law

$T=ma+\mu_s mg$

Substitute the values

$T=250\times 2.86+0.14(250)(9.8)=1058 N$

Hence, the force in the coupling between the dogs and the sled=1058 N

A cylindrical metal can is to have no lid. It is to have a volume of 125π in3. What height minimizes the amount of metal used?

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Minimum height of metal = 5 inches

Explanation:

Volume of the cylindrical metal = πR²H = 125π

cancelling out π on both sides

R²H = 125

Hence it can be deduced that R² = 25 and H = 5

Hence minimum height of metal = 5 inches

A refrigeration cycle has Qout = 1000 Btu and Wcycle = 300 Btu. Determine the coefficient of performance for the cycle.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The coefficient of performance for the cycle is 2.33.

Explanation:

Given that,

Output energy $Q_{out}=1000\ Btu$

Work done $W_{cycle}=300\ Btu$

We need to calculate the coefficient of performance

Using formula of the coefficient of performance

$COP=\dftrac{Q_{in}}{W_{cycle}}$

We need to calculate the $Q_{in}$

$W_{cycle}=Q_{out}-Q_{in}$

Put the value into the formula

$300=1000-Q_{in}$

$Q_{in}=300-1000$

$Q_{in}=700\ Btu$

Now put the value of $Q_{in}$ into the formula of COP

$COP=\dfrac{700}{300}$

$COP=\dfrac{7}{3}=2.33$

Hence, The coefficient of performance for the cycle is 2.33.

A constant net torque is exerted on an object. Which of the following quantities for the object cannot be constant? (Select all

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

A. kinetic energy

B. angular velocity

E. angular position

Explanation:

The quantities that cannot be constant if a constant net torque is exerted on an objecta are:

A. Kinetic energy. If a torque is applied, the linear or angular speed will be changing at a rate proportional to the torque, so the kinetic energy will change too.

B. Angular velocity. It will change at a rate equal to the torque.

C. Angular position. If the angular velocity changes, the angular position will change.

As an object sinks in a fluid, the buoyant force ____.

kiruha [24]

Beginning when the bottom of the object first touches the water,
and as it descends and more and more of it goes under, the
buoyant force on it increases during that time.

As soon as the object is completely underwater, it doesn't matter
how deep under it is, the buoyant force on it remains the same.
