Yield strength of mild steel is given as

Y = 250 MPa

here we know that

Y = \frac{F}{A}

250 * 10^6 = \frac{F}{\pi r^2}

now we can rearrange it as

F = \pi r^2 * 250* 10^6

here we know that

r = 1.25 mm = 1.25 * 10^{-3} m

F = \pi*(1.25*10^{-3})^2* 250* 10^6

F = 1.23 * 10^3 N

so maximum applied force will be F = 1.23 * 10^3 N

Two satellites, A and B are in different circular orbits
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The ratio of the orbital time periods of A and B is \frac{1}{2}

Solution:

As per the question:

The orbit of the two satellites is circular

Also,

Orbital speed of A is 2 times the orbital speed of B

v_{oA} = 2v_{oB}        (1)

Now, we know that the orbital speed of a satellite for circular orbits is given by:

v_{o} = \farc{2\piR}{T}

where

R = Radius of the orbit

Now,

For satellite A:

v_{oA} = \farc{2\piR}{T_{a}}

Using eqn (1):

2v_{oB} = \farc{2\piR}{T_{a}}           (2)

For satellite B:

v_{oB} = \farc{2\piR}{T_{b}}              (3)

Now, comparing eqn (2) and eqn (3):

\frac{T_{a}}{T_{b}} = \farc{1}{2}

Based on the second law of thermodynamics, how would you expect a system to change over time?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Endless movement between hot and cold will eventually mean the end of the universe. This law is about inefficiency, degeneration and decay. <u>The second law can be expressed in several ways, the simplest being that heat will naturally flow from a hotter to a colder body. At its heart is a property of thermodynamic systems called entropy.</u> Entropy basically means an increase in randomness. Hope this helps mate.

In an eslastic ,the momentum is_______and the mechanical energy is​
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

In an elastic collision, the momentum is conserved and the mechanical energy is conserved too.

Explanation:

There are two types of collisions:

- Elastic collision: in an elastic collision, the total momentum before and after the collision is conserved; also, the total mechanical energy before and after the collision is conserved.

- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum before and after the colllision is conserved, while the total mechanical energy is not conserved (in fact, part of the energy is converted into other forms of energy such that thermal energy, due to the presence of frictional forces)
