Answer:

10N

Explanation:

Applying the Hooke law:

F = kx

F: Force

k: stiffness coefficient

x: stretched distance

F = 10N/m x 1m = 10N

A pendulum is formed by taking a 2.0 kg mass and hanging it from the ceiling using a steel wire with a diameter of 1.1 mm. it is

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: 1.39 s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

$\frac{\Delta l}{l_{o}}=\frac{F}{AY}$ (1)

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l_{o}}{g}}$ (2)

Where:

$\Delta l=0.05 mm=5(10)^{-5} m$ is the length the steel wire streches (taking into account 1mm=0.001 m)

$l_{o}$ is the length of the steel wire before being streched

$F=mg=(2 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})=19.6 N$ is the force due gravity (the weight) acting on the pendulum with mass $m=2 kg$

$A$ is the transversal area of the wire

$Y=2(10)^{11} Pa$ is the Young modulus for steel

$T$ is the period of the pendulum

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

Knowing this, let's begin by finding $A$ :

$A=\pi r^{2}=\pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2}=\pi \frac{d^{2}}{4}$ (3)

Where $d=1.1 mm=0.0011 m$ is the diameter of the wire

$A=\pi \frac{(0.0011 m)^{2}}{4}$ (4)

$A=9.5(10)^{-7}m^{2}$ (5)

Knowing this area we can isolate $l_{o}$ from (1):

$l_{o}=\frac{\Delta l AY}{F}$ (6)

And substitute $l_{o}$ in (2):

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{\Delta l AY}{F}}{g}}$ (7)

$T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{\frac{(5(10)^{-5} m)(9.5(10)^{-7}m^{2})(2(10)^{11} Pa)}{2(10)^{11} Pa}}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$ (8)

Finally:

$T=1.39 s$

Indicate whether the statement is true or false. A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull.

Sidana [21]

This B: False, because the definition is lacking.

Force is when two objects interact with one another causing it to either move or not move. In our daily lives there are a lot of times force is exerted upon us, rather force is everywhere and here are the evidences:

*Pushing a cart
*Pushing a wall
*Hitting a baseball bat
*Apple falling down from a tree.
*Balls hitting one another
*A swinging pendulum
*Throwing a paper with stone above it
*Breaking of glass in the floor
*Falling of leaves on the grass <span> </span>
