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 rock has a mass of 3.1 kg. What is its weight on earth
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

W = 30.38 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a rock, m = 3.1 kg

We need to find the weight of the rock on the surface of Earth. Weight of an object is given by :

W = mg

g is the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

W = 3.1 kg × 9.8 m/s²

= 30.38 N

So, the weight of the rock on the Earth is 30.38 N.

What are 3 criteria for acceleration?
Temka [501]

I don't think you mean 'criteria'.  I think you mean three occurrences or
observations that indicate the presence of acceleration.

They are:

-- an object is speeding up
-- an object is slowing down
-- the direction of an object's motion is changing .

Any one of these changes is acceleration.

There's a single term that covers them all.  It is "change in velocity".

For a certain RLC circuit the maximum generator EMF is 125 V and the maximum current is 3.20 A. If le a) the impedance of the ci
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Part (i)

Z = 39.06 ohm

Part (ii)

R = 21.7 ohm

Explanation:

a) here we know that

maximum value of EMF = 125 V

maximum value of current = 3.20 A

now by ohm's law we can find the impedence as

z = \frac{V_o}{i_o}

now we will have

z = \frac{125}{3.20} = 39.06 ohm

Part b)

Now we also know that

\frac{R}{z} = cos\theta

\theta = 0.982 rad = 56.3 degree

now we have

\frac{R}{39.06} = cos56.3

R = 21.7 ohm
