Answer

given,

diameter of steel = d = 26 c m

         radius = 13 cm = 0.13 m

length = L = 2.4 m

mass = 7800 Kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

a) stress = F/A

stress = \dfrac{mg}{\pi\ r^2}

stress = \dfrac{7800 \times 9.8}{\pi\ 0.13^2}

stress = 1.44 x 10⁶ N/m²

b) Young's modulus x  strain = stress

 Young's modulus for steel = 200 x 10⁹ N/m²

    200 x 10⁹ x strain = 1.44 x 10⁶

     strain = 7.2 x 10⁻⁶ m

c) change in length

  Strain= \dfrac{\Delta L}{L}

  7.2 \times 10^{-6} = \dfrac{\Delta L}{2.4}

  \Delta L= 17.28\times 10^{-6}\ m

A cube of plastic 1.2x10^-5 km on a side has a mas of 1.1 g. what is its density in g/cm^3?
Mamont248 [21]
Density = mass / volume

mass = 1.1 g

volume = length of side ^ 3 = [1.2 * 10^-5 km * 100000 cm/km]^3 = [1.2 cm]^3 = 1.728 cm^3

density = 1.1 g / 1.728 cm^3 = 0.64 g / cm^3

A spherical Christmas tree ornament is 8.00 cm in diameter. What is the magnification of an object placed 12.0 cm away from the
LiRa [457]

The magnification of the ornament is 0.25

To calculate the magnification of the ornament, first, we need to find the image distance.

Formula:

  • 1/f = u⁻¹+v⁻¹.................... Equation 1

Where:

  • f = Focal length of the ornament
  • u = image distance
  • v = object distance.

make u the subject of the equation

  • u = fv/(f+v)................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • f = 8/2 = 4 cm
  • v = 12 cm

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • u = (12×4)/(12+4)
  • u = 48/16
  • u = 3 cm.

Finally, to get the magnification of the ornament, we use the formula below.

  • M = u/v.................. Equation 3

Where

  • M = magnification of the ornament.

Substitute these values above into equation 3

  • M = 3/12
  • M = 0.25.

Hence, The magnification of the ornament is 0.25

The rotation of Earth is equivalent to one day which is comprised of 24 hours. To determine the number of miles in Earth's circumference, one simply have to multiply the given rate by the appropriate conversion factor and dimensional analysis. This is shown below.
 
                  C = (1038 mi/h)(24 h/1 day)
                   C = 24,912 miles

From the given choices, the nearest value would have to be 20,000 mile. The answer is the second choice.
