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

Say that you are in a large room at temperature TC = 300 K. Someone gives you a pot of hot soup at a temperature of TH = 340 K.
DiKsa [7]

Answer:0.061

Explanation:

Given

T_C=300 k

Temperature of soup T_H=340 K

heat capacity of soup c_v=33 J/K

Here Temperature of soup is constantly decreasing

suppose T is the temperature of soup at any  instant

efficiency is given by

\eta =\frac{dW}{Q}=1-\frac{T_C}{T}

dW=Q(1-\frac{T_C}{T})

dW=c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT

integrating From T_H to T_C

\int dW=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}c_v(1-\frac{T_C}{T})dT

W=\int_{T_C}^{T_H}33\cdot (1-\frac{300}{T})dT

W=c_v\left [ T-T_C\ln T\right ]_{T_H}^{T_C}

W=c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]

Now heat lost by soup is given by

Q=c_v(T_C-T_H)

Fraction of the total heat that is lost by the soup can be turned is given by

=\frac{W}{Q}

=\frac{c_v\left [ \left ( T_C-T_H\right )-T_C\left ( \ln \frac{T_C}{T_H}\right )\right ]}{c_v(T_C-T_H)}

=\frac{T_C-T_H-T_C\ln (\frac{T_C}{T_H})}{T_C-T_H}

=\frac{300-340-300\ln (\frac{300}{340})}{300-340}

=\frac{-40+37.548}{-40}

Block B has mass 6.00 kg and sits at rest on a horizontal, frictionless surface. Block A has mass 2.50 kg and sits at rest on to
zzz [600]

Answer:

Explanation:

Block A sits on block B and force is applied on block A . Block A will experience two forces 1) force P and 2 )  friction force in opposite direction of motion . Block B will experience one force that is force of friction in the direction of motion .

Let force on block A be P . friction force on it will be equal to kinetic friction, that is μ mg , where μ is coefficient of friction and m is mass of block A

friction force = .4 x 2.5 x 9.8

= 9.8 N

net force on block A = P - 9.8

acceleration = ( P - 9.8 ) / 2.5

force on block B = 9.8

acceleration = force / mass

= 9.8 / 6

for common acceleration

( P - 9.8 ) / 2.5  = 9.8 / 6

( P - 9.8 ) / 2.5 = 1.63333

P = 13.88 N .
