A copper rod of crosssectional area 0.500 cm2 and length 1.00 m is elongated by 2.00 * 10-2 mm and a steel rod of the same cross

-sectional area but 0.100 m in length is elongated by 2.00 * 10-3 mm. Which rod is under greater tensile strain?

Answer:

<h3>They have the same tensile strain</h3>

Explanation:

Strain of a material is the ratio of its extension to its original length.

strain = e/lo

e is the extension

lo is the original length

For a copper rod;

e = 2.00 * 10^-2mm

lo = 1.00m

convert 1.00m to mm

1.00m = 1*10^-3mm

get the strain

Strain = 2.00 * 10^-2mm/1*10^-3mm

Strain = 2 * 10^{-2+3}

Strain = 2*10^1 = 20

For the steel

e = 2.00 * 10^-3mm

lo = 0.100m

convert 0.100m to mm

0.1m = 0.1*10^-3mm

0.1m = 10^-4mm

get the strain

Strain = 2.00 * 10^-3mm/10^-4mm

Strain = 2 * 10^{-3+4}

Strain = 2*10^1 = 20

Since the value of their strain are the same, this means that they a re under the SAME tensile strain. No one is greater that the other.

HELPPPPP it’s due in 10 minutes
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

A.c

Explanation:

The chromosphere is above the photosphere, the visible "surface" of the Sun. It lies below the solar corona, the Sun's upper atmosphere, which extends many thousands of kilometers above the chromosphere into space. The plasma (electrically charged gas) in the chromosphere has a very low density.

In basic terms it is the 2nd one out from the core.

Communities of organisms coexist in organized, balanced _____?
poizon [28]

Answer: C- ecosystem

An ecosystem is a biological community in which living beings interacts with their non-living environment. An ecosystem consists of abiotic ( non-living factors like water, sunlight, wind and soil) and biotic factors such as plants and animals. Ecosystem allows not only the interaction of abiotic and biotic factors but it favors the interaction between the living species. For example animals are dependent upon plants so as to derive their food. The coexistence of organisms favors the diversity of land forms on earth.

Communities of organisms coexist in organized, balanced ecosystems.

What is the velocity if your going 105 miles every 10 minutes
Afina-wow [57]
The speed is 10.5 miles per minute, or 630 miles per hour.
We don't know the velocity, because you didn't tell us anything about the direction I'm going.
