Answer:

1.429*10^-5 m

Explanation:

From the question, we are given that

Diameter of the cable, d = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Force on the cable, F = 2 kN

Young Modulus, Y = 2*10^11 Pa

Area of the cable = πd²/4 = (3.142 * 0.03²) / 4 = 0.0028 / 4 = 0.0007 m²

The fractional length = Δl/l

Δl/l = F/AY

Δl/l = 2000 / 0.0007 * 2*10^11

Δl/l = 2000 / 1.4*10^8

Δl/l = 1.429*10^-5 m

Therefore, the fractional length is 1.429*10^-5 m long

How do you relate and explain a planet's distance from the Sun to things like the time of their year & their average tempare
anzhelika [568]
What we call a "year" is the time a body takes to complete one orbital revolution
in its path around the sun.  The way gravity works, the farther a planet is from the
sun, the slower it moves, and the longer it takes to complete that trip.  So, farther
out from the sun means a longer "year".

Everybody knows that if you want to get more warmth, then you have to stand closer
to the fire, and it's the same with planets.  The farther a planet is from the sun, the less
heat it gets from the sun, and in most cases, that means its average temperature is
lower. (The planet's average temperature is affected by other things besides its distance
from the sun, such as how much heat comes up from inside, and how much heat its
atmosphere traps.)

The farther a planet's rotation axis is tilted from being perpendicular to the plane
of its orbit, the more seasonal variation there can be in the temperature at any one
place on its surface.  Of course, this is kind of irrelevant if the planet has no surface.
