A thin, light wire 75.2 cm long having a circular cross section 0.560 mm in diameter has a 25.2 kg weight attached to it, causin
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The stress is calculated as 1.003\times 10^{9}\ Pa

Solution:

As per the question:

Length of the wire, l = 75.2 cm = 0.752 m

Diameter of the circular cross-section, d = 0.560 mm = 0.560\times 10^{- 3}\ m

Mass of the weight attached, m = 25.2 kg

Elongation in the wire, \Delta l = 1.10\ mm = 1.10\times 10^{- 3}\ m

Now,

The stress in the wire is given by:

Stress,\ \sigma = \frac{Force,\ F}{Area,\ A}          (1)

Now,

Force is due to the weight of the attached weight:

F = mg = 25.2\times 9.8 = 246.96\ N

Cross  sectional Area, A = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2} = \pi (\frac{0.560\times 10^{- 3}}{2})^{2} = 2.46\times 10^{- 7}\ m^{2}

Using these values in eqn (1):

\sigma = \frac{246.96}{2.46\times 10^{- 7}} = 1.003\times 10^{9}\ Pa

olasank [31]

Answer:

M1 V1 = M1 V2 + M2 V3    conservation of momentum

V2 = (M1 V1 - M2 V3) / M1      where V2 = speed of M1 after impact

V2 = (3 * 9 - 1.5 * 5) / 9  =   (27 - 7.5) / 9 = 2.17 m/s

Note: All speeds are in the same direction and have the same sign

e-lub [12.9K]
You should not go into the left side of the roadway when within 100 feet of the crossing. Moreover, you should also turn on your turn signal when within 100 of a turn. These precautions prevent accidents as it makes clear to other drivers what your intentions are and drivers making turns are not endangered.
