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

A spring stretches 5 cm when a 300-N mass is suspended from it. Calculate the spring constant in N / m .
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000

Explanation:

Given:

Length of spring stretches = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Force = 300 N

Find:

Spring constant in N / m

Computation:

Spring constant in N / m = Force/Distance

Spring constant in N / m = 300 / 0.05

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000

Please choose the answer that describes the scientific notation 5098000
bonufazy [111]

So there is a decimal after the last zero and it looks like this 5098000. You have to move the decimal point six back to get in between the five and the zero which looks like this 5.098000 

<span>Scientific notation is the way that scientists easily handle very large numbers or very small numbers. For example, instead of writing 0.0000000056, we write 5.6 x 10^<span>9</span>.</span>

Being that we moved the decimal six places back the answer is 5.098 x 10^6

A wave with a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

0.16Hz

Explanation:

wavelength (λ) = 125 meters

speed (V) = 20 m/s

frequency (F) = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles the wave complete in one

second. And its value depends on the wavelength and speed of the wave.

So, apply the formula V = F λ

Make F the subject formula

F = V / λ

F = 20 m/s / 125 meters

F = 0.16 Hz
