A copper wire has a radius of 3.5 mm. When forces of a certain equal magnitude but opposite directions are applied to the ends o

f the wire, the wire stretches by 5.0×10−3 of its original length. What is the tensile stress on the wire? Young's modulus for copper is 11×1010Pa.

Answer:

The tensile stress on the wire is 550 MPa.

Explanation:

Given;

Radius of copper wire, R = 3.5 mm

extension of the copper wire, e =  5.0×10⁻³ L

L is the original length of the copper wire,

Young's modulus for copper, Y =  11×10¹⁰Pa.

Young's modulus, Y is given as the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain, measured in the same unit as Young's modulus.

Y =\frac{Tensile \ stress}{Tensile \ strain} \\\\Tensile \ stress = Y*Tensile \ strain\\\\But, Tensile \ strain = \frac{extension}{original \ Length} = \frac{5.0*10^{-3} L}{L} = 5.0*10^{-3}\\\\Tensile \ stress = 11*10^{10} *5.0*10^{-3} \ = 550*10^6 \ Pa

Therefore, the tensile stress on the wire is 550 MPa.

Pls help. This is about heat. I got the answer, just need the working
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

You have to heat the calorimeter to 100 C  from 20 C

  this will take   .20 kg *    390 j /kg-C   *  80 C = <u>6240 j</u>

You have to heat the mass of water to boiling point (100 C ) from 20C

this will take    

    .50 kg * 4182 j/kg-C  * 80 = <u>167,280 j </u>

AND you have to add enough heat to boil off  .03 kg of water:

   .03 kg * (2260000 j/kg-C )  =<u> 67,800 j</u>

<u />

Power = joules / sec =  (6240 + 167280 + 67800) / 274.8 =<u> 878 watts </u>

<u />

<u>Your answer may differ just a bit for slightly different or rounded values of specific heat or heat of fusion for water .....</u>

A light ray incident from medium 1 to medium 2, where n1&gt;n2. When the incident angle exceed the critical angle ac, the refrac
vovikov84 [41]

Explanation:

(a)

Critical angle is the angle at the angle of refraction is 90°. After the critical angle, no refraction takes place.

Using Snell's law as:

n_1\times {sin\theta_i}={n_2}\times{sin\theta_r}

Where,  

{\theta_i}  is the angle of incidence

{\theta_r} is the angle of refraction = 90°

{n_2} is the refractive index of the refraction medium

{n_1} is the refractive index of the incidence medium

Thus,

n_1\times {sin\ \theta_{critical}}={n_2}\times{sin\ 90^0}

The formula for the calculation of critical angle is:

{sin\theta_{critical}}=\frac {n_2}{n_1}

Where,  

{\theta_{critical}} is the critical angle

(b)

No it cannot occur. It only occur when the light ray bends away from the normal which means that when it travels from denser to rarer medium.

Two balls, each with a mass of 0.890 kg, exert a gravitational force of 8.06 × 10−11 n on each other. how far apart are the ball
Bond [772]
This problem involves Newton's universal law of gravitation and the equation to follow would be.

F = GM₁M₂/r²  

Given: M₁ = 0.890 Kg;  M₂ = 0.890 Kg;  F = 8.06 x 10⁻¹¹ N; G = 6.673 X 10⁻¹¹ N m²/Kg²

Solving for distance r = ?

r = √GM₁M₂/F

r = √(6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ N m₂/Kg²)(0.890 Kg)(0.890 Kg)/ 8.06 x 10⁻¹¹ N

r = 0.81 m
