Jose is loading his luggage into his car so that he can go to visit his grandmother. He lifts his suitcase up a 10 m staircase i
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The work done on the suitcase is, W = 600 J

Explanation:

Given,

The average force exerted by Jose on his suitcase,  F = 60 N

Jose carried the suitcase to a distance, S = 10 m

The work done on the suitcase is given by the relation

                           <em>W = F x S</em>

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                            W = 60 N x 10 m

                                 = 600 J

Hence, the work done on the suitcase is, W = 600 J

Suppose we hang a heavy ball with a mass 13 kg (so the weight is ) from a steel wire 3.9 m long that is 3.1 mm in diameter (radi
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

1.635×10^-3m

Explanation:

Young modulus is the ratio of the tensile stress of a material to its tensile strain.

Young modulus = Tensile stress/tensile strain

Tensile stress = Force/Area

Given force = 130N

Area = Πr² = Π×(1.55×10^-3)²

Area = 4.87×10^-6m²

Tensile stress = 130/4.87×10^-6 = 8.39×10^7N/m²

Tensile strain = extension/original length

Tensile strain = e/3.9

Substituting in the young modulus formula given young modulus to be 2×10¹¹N/m²

2×10¹¹N/m² = 8.39×10^7/{e/3.9)}

2×10¹¹ = (8.39×10^7×3.9)/e

2×10¹¹e = 3.27×10^8

e = 3.27×10^8/2×10¹¹

e = 1.635×10^-3m

The stretch of the steel wire will be

1.635×10^-3m
