Answer:
0.71 kg
Explanation:
L = length of the steel wire = 3.0 m
d = diameter of steel wire = 0.32 mm = 0.32 x 10⁻³ m
Area of cross-section of the steel wire is given as
A = (0.25) πd²
A = (0.25) (3.14) (0.32 x 10⁻³)²
A = 8.04 x 10⁻⁸ m²
ΔL = change in length of the wire = 1.3 mm = 1.3 x 10⁻³ m
Y = Young's modulus of steel = 20 x 10¹⁰ Nm⁻²
m = mass hanging
F = weight of the mass hanging
Young's modulus of steel is given as


F = 6.968 N
Weight of the hanging mass is given as
F = mg
6.968 = m (9.8)
m = 0.71 kg
Answer:
Energy absorbed or hidden when water evaporates
Explanation:
The heat that is required to make a phase change is known as latent heat.
A phase change occurs when matter changes state. For example from solid to liquid, from liquid to gas, among others.
When changing from liquid to gas (for example when water evaporates), the heat necessary for this to happen is called latent heat of vaporization. The word latent means hidden, because a change in temperature is not perceived during the phase change, even when heat is being added, thus it is said that the heat is hidden or latent.
So the answer is:
- Energy absorbed or hidden when water evaporates.
*Another type of latent heat is the latent heat of fusion, which is when a solid becomes liquid.
Answer:
The distance can the water be projected is 4.51 m
Explanation:
The speed of the water in the hose is equal to:
v1 = R/A1
If we solve the continuity for v2:
v2 = R/A2 (eq. 1)
The equation for the vertical position is:
yf = yi + vy*t - (1/2)gt²
yi = 0
vy = 0
Clearing t:
(eq. 2)
The equation for position is:
xf = xi + vxt = 0 + v2t = v2t (eq. 3)
Replacing equation 1 and 2 in equation 3:
