Answer:

550000000N/m

Explanation:

Given that a copper wire has a radius of 2.9 mm. When forces of a certain equal magnitude but opposite directions are applied to the ends of the wire, the wire stretches by 5.0×10−3 of its original length.

Original length L = 0.005L

the strain = extension/ original length

the strain = 0.005L / L

the strain = 0.005

Young modulus = stress / strain

11 × 10^10 = stress / 0.005

Cross multiply

Stress = 11 × 10^10 × 0.005

Stress = 550 000000 N/m

Therefore, the tensile stress on the wire is 550000000 N/m.

What advantage do space telescopes have over telescopes used on earth?
Elina [12.6K]
Earth's atmosphere blocks many types of light including gamma, x-rays most ultraviolet and infrared. So optical telescopes that use visible light and ultraviolet telescopes that are used to study very hot stars are much less effective on Earth.

A 7.7 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere initially at rest. The composite system moves with a
klemol [59]

Answer:

15.4 kg.

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.

Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)

Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s

Substitute into equation 1

7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')

23.1 = 7.7+m'

m' = 23.1-7.7

m' = 15.4 kg.

Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg
