A disk between vertebrae in the spine is subjected to a shearing force of 600 N. Find its shear deformation, taking it to have t

he shear modulus of 1 x 109 N/m2. The disk is equivalent to a solid cylinder 0.700 cm high and 4.00 cm in diameter.

Answer:

3.34×10^-6m

Explanation:

The shear modulus can also be regarded as the rigidity. It is the ratio of shear stress and shear strain

can be expressed as

shear stress/(shear strain)

= (F/A)/(Lo/ . Δx)

Stress=Force/Area

The sheear stress can be expressed below as

F Lo /(A *Δx)

Where A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

F=shearing force force= 600N

Δx= distance

S= shear modulus= 1 x 109 N/m2

Lo= Lenght of the cylinder= 0.700 cm=7×10^-2m

If we make Δx subject of the formula we have

Δx= FLo/(SA)

If we substitute the Area A we have

Δx= FLo/[S(πd^2/4]

Δx=4FLo/(πd^2 *S)

If we input the values we have

(4×600×0.7×10^-2)/10^9 × 3.14 ×(4×10^-2)^2

= 3.35×10^-6m

Therefore, its shear deformation is 3.35×10^-6m

A=area of the disk= πd^2/4

= [3.142×(4×10^-2)^2]/4

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Argon to potassium ratio after 1 half life = 1:1

After 2 half lives = 75/25= 3:1

After 3 half lives = 87.5/12.5= 7:1

After 4 half lives = 93.75/6.25 = 15:1

After 5 half lives = 96.875/3.125 = 31/1

You stand on a straight desert road at night and observe a vehicle approaching. This vehicle is equipped with two small headligh
spayn [35]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to Reyleigh's criteria. Here the resolution of the eye is defined as 1.22 times the wavelength over the diameter of the eye. Mathematically this is,

\theta = \frac{1.22 \lambda }{D}

Here,

D is diameter of the eye

D = \frac{1.22 (539nm)}{5.11 mm}

D= 1.287*10^{-4}m

The angle that relates the distance between the lights and the distance to the lamp is given by,

Sin\theta = \frac{d}{L}

For small angle, sin\theta = \theta

sin \theta = \frac{d}{L}

Here,

d = Distance between lights

L = Distance from eye to lamp

For small angle sin \theta = \theta

Therefore,

L = \frac{d}{sin\theta}

L = \frac{0.691m}{1.287*10^{-4}}

L = 5367m

Therefore the distance is 5.367km.

Suppose the battery in a clock wears out after moving thousand coulombs of charge through the clock at a rate of 0.5 Ma how long
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Hello your question is poorly written below is the complete question

Suppose the battery in a clock wears out after moving Ten thousand coulombs of charge through the clock at a rate of 0.5 Ma how long did the clock run on does battery and how many electrons per second slowed?

answer :

a) 231.48 days

b) n = 3.125 * 10^15

Explanation:

Battery moved 10,000 coulombs

current rate = 0.5 mA

<u>A) Determine how long the clock run on the battery. use the relation below</u>

q = i * t ----- ( 1 )

q = charge , i = current , t = time

10000 = 0.5 * 10^-3 * t

hence  t = 2 * 10^7 secs

hence the time = 231.48  days

<u>B) Determine how many electrons per second flowed </u>

q = n*e ------ ( 2 )

n = number of electrons

e = 1.6 * 10^-19

q = 0.5 * 10^-3 coulomb ( charge flowing per electron )

back to equation 2

n ( number of electrons ) = q / e = ( 0.5 * 10^-3 ) / ( 1.6 * 10^-19 )

hence : n = 3.125 * 10^15

Before the experiment, the total momentum of the system is 2.5 kg m/s to the right and the kinetic energy is 5J. After the exper
finlep [7]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Elastic collision is defined as a collision where the kinetic energy of the system remains same. Both linear momentum and kinetic energy are conserved in case of an elastic collision.

Inelastic collision is defined as a collision where kinetic energy of the system is not conserved whereas the linear momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy may due to the conversion to thermal energy or sound energy or may be due to the deformation of the materials colliding with each other.

As given in the problem, before the collision, total momentum of the system is 2.5~Kg~m~s^{-1} and the kinetic energy is 5~J. After the collision, the total momentum of the system is  2.5~Kg~m~s^{-1}, but the kinetic energy is reduced to 4~J. So some amount of kinetic energy is lost during the collision.

Therefor the situation describes an inelastic collision (and it could NOT be elastic).

A block with mass m 2.00 kg is placed against a spring on a frictionless incline with angle 30 degrees (Fig. B-43). (The block i
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

The stored elastic energy of compressed spring

= 1 / 2 k X²

= .5 x 19.6 x (.20)²

= .392 J

b ) The stored potential energy will be converted into gravitational potential energy of the block earth system when the block will ascend along the incline . So change in the gravitational potential energy will be same as stored elastic potential energy of the spring that is .392 J .

c ) Let h be the distance along the incline which the block ascends.

vertical height attained ( H ) =h sin30

= .5 h

elastic potential energy = gravitational energy

.392 = mg H

.392 = 2 x 9.8 x .5 h

h = .04 m

4 cm .
