For the material in the previous question that yields at 200 MPa, what is the maximum mass, in kg, that a cylindrical bar with d
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The maximum mass the bar can support without yielding = 32408.26 kg

Explanation:

Yield stress of the material (\sigma) = 200 M Pa

Diameter of the bar = 4.5 cm = 45 mm

We know that yield stress of the bar is given by the formula

                Yield Stress = \frac{Maximum load}{Area of the bar}

⇒                                \sigma = \frac{P_{max} }{A}  ---------------- (1)

⇒ Area of the bar (A) = \frac{\pi}{4} ×D^{2}

⇒                            A  = \frac{\pi}{4} × 45^{2}

⇒                            A = 1589.625 mm^{2}

Put all the values in equation (1) we get

⇒ P_{max} = 200 × 1589.625

⇒ P_{max} = 317925 N

In this bar the P_{max} is equal to the weight of the bar.

⇒ P_{max} = M_{max} × g

Where M_{max} is the maximum mass the bar can support.

⇒ M_{max} = \frac{P_{max} }{g}

Put all the values in the above formula we get

⇒ M_{max} = \frac{317925}{9.81}

⇒ M_{max} = 32408.26 Kg

There fore the maximum mass the bar can support without yielding = 32408.26 kg

stich3 [128]
The back-and-forth movement of electrons is called alternating current. Electrons go back and forth, the direction of their path alternates from one direction to another.

the movement of electrons in one direction is called direct current. The electrons move in a direct, single path without changing directions.

If the mass of a material is 50 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
AlekseyPX
The density of the material would be 
25/6 grams per cm^3.
to obtain the result above this is what we do:
density is calculated as: (the mass of the given material or object) / volume of the material 
which leads us to 50grams /12cm^3
