Comic-book superheroes are sometimes able to punch holes through steel walls. (a) If the ultimate shear strength of steel is tak

en to be 2.50 x 108 Pa, what force is required to punch through a steel plate 2.00 cm thick? Assume the superhero’s fist has cross-sectional area of 1.00 x 102 cm2 and is approximately circular. (b) Qualitatively, what would happen to the superhero on delivery of the punch? What physical law applies?

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

shear stress is the measure of the material's resistance to cause "sliding" motion of its layers. 
<span>Since the hero has to take a cylindrical piece of metal out, the area which will cause this force is 2*pi*r*l (put r and l in SI units to get answer in Newtons) </span>
<span>so the force required is shear strength into this area (2.60109 * 2 * pi * r * l) </span>

Describing Momentum Calculatthe momentum of cars A and answer the question Car A: Mass: 1,000 kilograms Velocity: 40 meters/seco
sertanlavr [38]
Momentum is a protector the mass and the velocity of a moving object.
Momentum= mass*speed
For Car A: Mass:1,000 kilograms Velocity: 40 meters/second;
Momentum=1,000 kg*40 m/s
=40000kg.m/s
For Car B: Mass: 4,000 kilograms Velocity 10 meters/second;
Momentum=4000kg*10m/s
=40000kg.m/s
Both cars require the same amount of force to stop. This is because they have the same momentum.

One simple use of the elements of the electromagnetic spectrum that we use during our everyday lives is our daily use of microwave radiation. microwave radiation is absorbed by water molecules which heats up and cooks the food whilst killing bacteria. Another would be ultraviolet radiation which we use daily in things such as light bulbs. The sun also uses this. Lastly, we use radio waves constantly. May it be tv programs, radio, or our cell phones.
