A person hangs from a nylon rope (Young's modulus of 5 x 109 N/m2) as seen in the picture below. The rope stretches by 2 % and h

as a diameter of 0.03 m. What mass does the person have to stretch the rope by this amount? (The answer may not be realistic!)

Answer:

959183.7 kg  

Explanation:

from the question we have :

young modulus = 5 x 10^{9} N/m^{2}

strain = 2% = 2÷100 = 0.02

diameter = 0.03 m

radius = 0.015 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

we can get the mass from the formula below

young modulus = stress ÷ strain

where

stress = \frac[force}{area} = \frac {mass x g}{area}

area = 2πr = 2π x 0.015 = 0.094

therefore    

young modulus = \frac{\frac {mass x g}{area}}{strain}

 5 x 10^{9}  =  \frac{\frac {mass x 9.8}{0.094}}{0.02}

mass =  \frac{5 x 10^{9} x 0.02 x 0.094}{9.8}

mass = 959183.7 kg

The movement of a magnetic pole away from the actual pole
Lunna [17]

The North Magnetic Pole is the point on the surface of Earth's Northern Hemisphere at which the planet's magnetic field points vertically downwards (in other words, if a magnetic compass needle is allowed to rotate about a horizontal axis, it will point straight down). There is only one location where this occurs, near (but distinct from) the Geographic North Pole and the Geomagnetic North Pole.

lana [24]

Answer:

0.500 T

Explanation:

Since the change in time and the number of coils are both 1, I set the problem up to be 1.3=(1.5(x)-13(x)). I then plugged in numbers for x until I got the answer to be 1.3 V.
