A copper wire is 1.6 m long and its diameter is 1.1 mm. If the wire hangs vertically, how much weight (in N) must be added to it

qaws [65]

Answer:

Weight required = 194.51 N

Explanation:

The elongation is given by

$\Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}$

Length , L= 1.6 m

Diameter, d = 1.1 mm

Area

$A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}=\frac{\pi \times (1.1\times 10^{-3})^2}{4}=9.50\times 10^{-7}m^2$

Change in length, ΔL = 2.8 mm = 0.0028 m

Young's modulus of copper, E = 117 GPa = 117 x 10⁹ Pa

Substituting,

$\Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}\\\\0.0028=\frac{P\times 1.6}{9.50\times 10^{-7}\times 117\times 10^9}\\\\P=194.51N$

Weight required = 194.51 N

Why do people cover their flowers on a cool night. Think about radiation absorption conduction and temperature

Blababa [14]

When the temperature lowers the plants can freeze and die. One way to prevent that is to cover the plants so they dont freeze

Find the magnitude of the resultant force and the angle it makes with the positive x-axis. (Let |a| = 22 lb and |b| = 16 lb. Rou

SVEN [57.7K]

Incomplete question as the angle between the force is not given I assumed angle of 55°.The complete question is here

Two forces, a vertical force of 22 lb and another of 16 lb, act on the same object. The angle between these forces is 55°. Find the magnitude and direction angle from the positive x-axis of the resultant force that acts on the object. (Round to one decimal places.)

Answer:

Resultant Force=33.8 lb

Angle=67.2°

Explanation:

Given data

Fa=22 lb

Fb=16 lb

Θ=55⁰

To find

(i) Resultant Force F

(ii)Angle α

Solution

First we need to represent the forces in vector form

$\sqrt{x} F_{1}=22j\\ F_{2}=u+v\\F_{2}=16sin(55)i+16cos(55)j\\F_{2}=16(0.82)i+16(0.5735)j\\F_{2}=13.12i+9.176j$

Total Force

$F=F_{1}+F_{2}\\ F_{2}=22j+13.12i+9.176j\\F_{2}=13.12i+31.176j$

The Resultant Force is given as

$|F|=\sqrt{x^{2} +y^{2} }\\|F|=\sqrt{(13.12)^{2} +(31.176)^{2} }\\ |F|=33.8lb$

For(ii) angle

We can find the angle bu using tanα=y/x

$tan\alpha =\frac{31.176}{13.12}\\ \alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{31.176}{13.12})\\\alpha =67.2^{o}$

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

40kgm

Explanation:

∆p = m(v - u)

= 2(60 - 40)

= 2 × 20
