1 answer:

Lesechka [4]3 years ago

6 0

Answer:

A fuse and circuit breaker both serve to protect an overloaded electrical circuit by interrupting the continuity, or the flow of electricity. ... Fuses tend to be quicker to interrupt the flow of power, but must be replaced after they melt, while circuit breakers can usually simply be reset.

A rock climber hangs freely from a nylon rope that is 15 m long and has a diameter of 8.3 mm. If the rope stretches 5.1 cm, what

irinina [24]

Answer:

Mass of the climber = 69.38 kg

Explanation:

Change in length

$\Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}$

Load, P = m x 9.81 = 9.81m

Young's modulus, Y = 0.37 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

Area

$A=\frac{\pi (8.3\times 10^{-3})^2}{4}=5.41\times 10^{-5}m^2$

Length, L = 15 m

ΔL = 5.1 cm = 0.051 m

Substituting

$0.051=\frac{9.81m\times 15}{5.41\times 10^{-5}\times 0.37\times 10^{10}}\\\\m=69.38kg$

Mass of the climber = 69.38 kg
