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.

How can you predict the action of the element
patriot [66]
Stark contrast to paths on energy surfaces or even mechanistic reactions, rule-based and inductive computational approaches to reaction prediction mostly consider only overall transformations. Overall transformations are general molecular graph rearrangements reflecting only the net change of several successive mechanistic reactions. For example, Figure 1 shows the overall transformation of an alkene interacting with hydrobromic acid to yield the alkyl bromide along with the two elementary reactions which compose the transformation.

I NEED HELP PLEASE I have to explain the joke but I don’t know how to ?
Solnce55 [7]
Why do transformers hum? Transformer noise is caused by a phenomenon which causes a piece of magnetic sheet steel to extend itself when magnetized. When the magnetization is taken away, it goes back to its original condition. This phenomenon is scientifically referred to as magnetostriction.

What is science and why do we study science and what are the benefits we are going to get from it ?​
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

science is define as the study of physics, chemistry, biology, geology and astronomy. science is very important in our daily life.we study science for knowing the knowledge about biological and chemical and many other aspects.without science it is impossible to live our daily life.science is used in each and every steps.

Explanation:

There are many more benefits that we are getting and going to get . Science has already discovered many things ,that we didn't expect efore.And also in progress to discover new things.Science has developed a new type of antivirus that protect us from different virus.Has made different medicine that recover a people. So it is very useful in our life.

Will an electromagnet be obtained if steel is placed inside the solenoid?​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:A solenoid is a simple electromagnetic device consisting of a coiled electric wire, wrapped in a 3D circular pattern. When electric current is passed through the wire, the solenoid acts like a magnet with N and S poles at the ends of the coil.

When a ferromagnetic material rod is permanently placed inside the solenoid, the metal greatly increases the magnetic effect and becomes a permanent electromagnet. Moreover, it can also be used as an electrical switch by drawing in or pushing out a ferromagnetic material like an iron rod. Depending on the directions of the rod and the electrical current the switching action takes place.

Given figure  represents the solenoid as electromagnet and the switching action.
