Answer:

It depends on how you use the spoon...

if you are keeping one end of the spoon and pressing other end, the force you provide is supported by the force due to gravity... Hence it is easy to open this way :)

F + G ... Where F is the force you provide and G is the force due to gravity.

Answer:

the spoon is longer making the vector large hence the torque is increased making it easy to open the lid

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

2.17 Mpa

Explanation:

The location of neutral axis from the top will be

\bar y=\frac {(240\times 25)\times \frac {25}{2}+2\times (20\times 150)\times (25+(\frac {150}{2}))}{(240\times 25)+2\times (20\times 150)}=56.25 mm

Moment of inertia from neutral axis will be given by \frac {bd^{3}}{12}+ ay^{2}

Therefore, moment of inertia will be

\frac {240\times 25^{3}}{12}+(240\times 25)\times (56.25-25/2)^{2}+2\times [\frac {20\times 150^{3}}{12}+(20\times 150)\times ((25+150/2)-56.25)^{2}]=34.5313\times 10^{6} mm^{4}}

Bending stress at top= \frac {630\times 10^{3}\times (175-56.25)}{34.5313\times 10^{6}}=2.1665127\approx 2.17 Mpa

Bending stress at bottom=\frac {630\times 10^{3}\times 56.25}{34.5313\times 10^{6}}=1.026242858\approx 1.03 Mpa

Comparing the two stresses, the maximum stress occurs at the bottom and is 2.17 Mpa
