Answer:

The change in beam's length due to the thermal expansion is 0.00288 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Original length of the steel rod, l = 15 m

Initial temperature, $T_i=34^{\circ} C$

Final temperature, $T_f=50^{\circ} C$

The coefficient of linear expansion of the steel, $\alpha =12\times 10^{-6}\ /^{\circ} C$

Let $\Delta l$ is the change in beam's length due to the thermal expansion. It can be given by :

$\dfrac{\Delta l}{l}=\alpha (T_f-T_i)\\\\\Delta l=l\alpha (T_f-T_i)\\\\\Delta l=15\times 12\times 10^{-6}\times (50-34)\\\\\Delta l=0.00288\ m$

So, the change in beam's length due to the thermal expansion is 0.00288 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

At a depth of 1030 m in Lake Baikal (a fresh water lake in Siberia), the pressure has increased by 100 atmospheres (to about 107

dangina [55]

Answer:

A volume of a cubic meter of water from the surface of the lake has been compressed in 0.004 cubic meters.

Explanation:

The bulk modulus is represented by the following differential equation:

$K = - V\cdot \frac{dP}{dV}$

Where:

$K$ - Bulk module, measured in pascals.

$V$ - Sample volume, measured in cubic meters.

$P$ - Local pressure, measured in pascals.

Now, let suppose that bulk remains constant, so that differential equation can be reduced into a first-order linear non-homogeneous differential equation with separable variables:

$-\frac{K \,dV}{V} = dP$

This resultant expression is solved by definite integration and algebraic handling:

$-K\int\limits^{V_{f}}_{V_{o}} {\frac{dV}{V} } = \int\limits^{P_{f}}_{P_{o}}\, dP$

$-K\cdot \ln \left |\frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} \right| = P_{f} - P_{o}$

$\ln \left| \frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} \right| = \frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K}$

$\frac{V_{f}}{V_{o}} = e^{\frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K} }$

The final volume is predicted by:

$V_{f} = V_{o}\cdot e^{\frac{P_{o}-P_{f}}{K} }$

If $V_{o} = 1\,m^{3}$ , $P_{o} - P_{f} = -10132500\,Pa$ and $K = 2.3\times 10^{9}\,Pa$ , then:

$V_{f} = (1\,m^{3}) \cdot e^{\frac{-10.1325\times 10^{6}\,Pa}{2.3 \times 10^{9}\,Pa} }$

$V_{f} \approx 0.996\,m^{3}$

Change in volume due to increasure on pressure is:

$\Delta V = V_{o} - V_{f}$

$\Delta V = 1\,m^{3} - 0.996\,m^{3}$

$\Delta V = 0.004\,m^{3}$

A volume of a cubic meter of water from the surface of the lake has been compressed in 0.004 cubic meters.

a concrete slab 20 m long and weighing 400,000 N is supported by one pillar. A 19,600 N car is parked 8 meters from one end, whe

Elden [556K]

let the distance of pillar is "r" from one end of the slab

So here net torque must be balance with respect to pillar to be in balanced state

So here we will have

$Mg(r - L/2) = mg(L/2 - 8)$

here we know that

mg = 19600 N

Mg = 400,000 N

L = 20 m

from above equation we have

$400,000(r - 10) = 19,600 (10 - 8)$

$r - 10 = 0.098$

$r = 10.098 m$

so pillar is at distance 10.098 m from one end of the slab
