Saturn's rings are made of billions of pieces of ice, dust and rocks. Some of these particles are as small as a grain of salt, while others are as big as houses.

Steel is very stiff, and the Young's modulus for steel is unusually large, 2.0×1011 N/m2. A cube of steel 25 cm on a side suppor
TEA [102]

Answer:

Force (normal) = 833.85 N Compression = 1.67 x 10⁻⁸ m

Explanation:

Given data Young's Modulus (Y) = 2 x 10¹¹ N/m², Length of one side of cube = 25 cm = 0.25 m, mass of load = 85 kg

Normal force is the force exerted upon an object that is in contact with another stable object. This force would be applied by the surface onto the object in the same vector and is used to keep the object stable while it rests on a surface.

We know from Newton's Second Law that

F = ma where m is the mass and a is the acceleration (<em>in this case due to gravity</em>) hence, the normal opposing force to the load applied by the surface would be equal to the force applied on the surface by the weight of the load on the surface, So

F (normal) = M (load) x a = 85 x 9.81 = 833.85 N

Compression is the change in length of an object by the exertion of force upon it. Using the Young's Modulus formula we can find this change in the cube of steel. The Young's Modulus is given by

Y = (F/A)/(ΔL/L), where Y is the Young's Modulus, F is the Force being applied on the object, A is the cross sectional area on which the said force is applied, ΔL is the change in length due to said force being applied and L is the original Length of the side of the cross sectional area.

Solving this for ΔL, we can re- arrange the equation

ΔL = (F x L)/(Y x A) since area of square is L x L we can simplify the equation to get

ΔL = (F)/(Y x L), substitute the values

ΔL = (833.85)/(2 x 10¹¹ x 0.25) = 1.67 x 10⁻⁸m

An automobile engine takes in 4000 j of heat and performs 1100 j of mechanical work in each cycle. (a) calculate the engine's ef
Semmy [17]
(a) The efficiency of an engine is defined as the ratio between the work done by the engine and the heat it takes in:
\eta= \frac{W}{Q_{in}}
The engine in this problem does a work of W=1100 J and it takes in Q_{in}=4000 J of heat, therefore its efficiency is
\eta= \frac{1100 J}{4000 J}=0.275 = 27.5 \%

(b) The heat taken by the machine is 4000 J; of this amount of heat, only 1100 J are converted into useful work. This means that the rest of the heat is wasted. Therefore, the wasted heat is the difference between the heat in input and the work done by the engine:
Q_{wasted}=Q_{in}-W=4000 J-1100 J=2900 J

A ski jumper starts with a horizontal take-off velocity of 25 m/s and lands on a straight landing hill inclined at 30o. Determin
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

0.34s, 8.5m,31.89m

Explanation:

The above motion defines a projectile motion.

Now the athletes lands on a cliff 30° to the horizontal this means the velocity at that point would be 25m/s cos30°

Now from Newton's law of motion.

The body would be decelerating so,

V = u - gt

Where u is initial velocity and v is final velocity. g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity.

Hence,

V-U/ -g = t

Hence 25cos30 - 25/ -9.8 = 0.34s.

2.Now the length of the jump is defined as the total horizontal distance which is marked off by the horizontal velocity and time taken for take off and landing.

Hence Distance,S = u × t

25 ×0.34 =8.5m.

3. The maximum height is defined that at that point the Final velocity is 0m/s

Now the initial velocity is 25m/s

From Newton's law that;

V2= U2 -2gH; where U and V are initial and final velocity and H is height.

Hence H = V2-U2/-2g

=(0)^2- (25)^2/ -2×9.8

= -625/-19.6 =31.89m
