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.

How do you calculate resistance with coulombs, time and J's?
Mars2501 [29]
Hey user


The energy E in joules (J) is equal to the voltage V in volts (V), times the electrical charge Q in coulombs (C):

E(J) = V(V) ×<span> Q</span>(C)

So

joule = volt × coulomb

or

J = V × C

Example

What is the energy in joules that is consumed in an electrical circuit with voltage supply of 15V and charge flow of 4 coulombs?

E = 15V × 4C = 60J

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

We would not be able to make our way around the earth's surface, to read, to sculpt or to create technology because we cannot see!

Explanation:

The minimum angular separation that can be distinguished by an eye gives the angular resolution of the eye.

Given that the Angular resolution with infrared radiation is = 1.0^0 equal to 60'

This resolution is very much greater than that of the eye (1')

The angular resolution that our eyes can see is about  \frac{1}{3}mm  at arms length

Angular resolution of infrared = \frac{1}{3} * 60 = 20mm  at arms length

We therefore cannot read, sculpt or create technology because we cannot see.

A person ate 0.50 pound of cheese (an energy intake of 4000 kJ). Suppose that none of the energy was stored in his body. What ma
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

The answer to the question is;

1637.769 grams of water will need to be perspired in order to maintain his original temperature.

Explanation:

Energy intake of the person = 4000 kJ

Energy required to vaporize 1 mole of water = 44.0 kJ

That is 44.0 kJ/mole

Therefore

The number of moles of water that can be vaporized by 4000 kJ is given by

(4000 kJ)/ (44.0 kJ/mole) = 90.91 moles.

Mass of one mole of water = Molar mass of water = 18.01528 g/mol

Since number of moles of water = (\frac{Mass .of. water}{Molar. mass. of. water})

We therefore have

Mass of water = (Number of moles of water)× (Molar mass of water)

Mass of water = 90.91 moles× 18.01528 g/mol = 1637.769 g

The mass (in grams) of water that he  would need to perspire in order to maintain his original temperature is 1637.769 g.
