We have a rod made of a certain metal. The rod’s length is L = 1.2 m and has a circular cross section with radius r= 3.8mm. If w

e hang the rod vertically and hang a mass of m = 22 kg at its end we find that it is stretched by d = 2.5 mm. (a) Using the information given, estimate the Young’s modulus for this metal rod, in N/m.
(b) If we know that this metal has a density of 12 g/cm^3, what would be the speed of sound in this metal in m/s?

Answer:

         Y =  2.286 *10^{9})  N/m

         V =  436.46 m/s

Explanation:

Length, L= 1.2 m

Radius, R=3.8 mm=3.8*10^{-3}

mass, m = 22 kg

Extension, ΔL = 2.5 mm

(a)

Forces  P= mg =22*9.8 =215.6 N

               Stress  = P/A

                            = 215.6/[(\pi(r)²]

                Stress = ( 215.6 ) / [(3.14* (3.18*10^{-3})²]

                Stress= 4.755 * 10^{6}  N/m²

    Strain in rod  =  ΔL/L = (2.5 *10^{-3})/(1.2)

                           =(2.08 *10^{-3})

     Now, Toung midulus  =Y= Stress/ Strain

                                          =(4.755 * 10^{6} )/(2.08 *10^{-3})

                                          =(2.286 *10^{9})  N/m

(b)

                     Density of metal  = 12 g/cm^{3}

                                                   = 12*10³ kg/m

   Speed of sound in the metal=

v=\sqrt{\frac{Y}{density} }  = \sqrt{\frac{2.286*10^{9} }{12*10^{3} } }

                               V=436.46 m/s

How many minutes would it take a light wave to travel from the planet Venus to Earth? (Average distance from Venus to Earth = 28
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

t=2.51min

Explanation:

The time taken by the light to travel a given distance is defined as:

t=\frac{d}{c}

Here c is obviously the speed of light. Now we convert the average distance form Venus to Earth to meters:

28*10^{6}mi*\frac{1609.34}{1mi}=4.51*10^{10}m

Finally, we calculate the minutes taken by the light to travel from Venus to Earth:

t=\frac{4.51*10^{10}m}{3*10^8\frac{m}{s}}\\t=150.33s*\frac{1min}{60s}=2.51min

A submarine is 2.84 102 m horizontally from shore and 1.00 102 m beneath the surface of the water. A laser beam is sent from the
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

468 m

Explanation:

So the building and the point where the laser hit the water surface make a right triangle. Let's call this triangle ABC where A is at the base of the building, B is at the top of the building, and C is where the laser hits the water surface. Similarly, the submarine, the projected submarine on the surface and the point where the laser hit the surface makes a another right triangle CDE. Let D be the submarine and E is the other point.

The length CE is length AE - length AC = 284 - 234 = 50 m

We can calculate the angle ECD:

tan(\hat{ECD}) = \frac{ED}{EC} = \frac{100}{50} = 2

\hat{ECD} = tan^{-1} 2 = 63.43^o

This is also the angle ACB, so we can find the length AB:

tan(\hat{ACB}) = \frac{AB}{AC} = \frac{AB}{234}

2 = \frac{AB}{234}

AB = 2*234 = 468 m

So the height of the building is 468m
